How are the very reactive metals high up in the reactivity series extracted from their ores?
reactive metals can often be extracted by electrolysis where there ore is disolved into a solvent and an electric current is passed through.
What two processes are used to extract metals?
There are 3 means of extracting metals that are used more than any others and they are: Reduction with carbon: An ore of a metal which is less reactive than carbon is heated with carbon and the more reactive carbon will separate the metallic element from its ore e.g extraction of Iron in a blast furnace Electrolysis: An electrical current is passed through a solution of the metal ore and the metal is split from its ore and collects at an electrode, this is done for metals more reactive than carbon Extraction by other metals: As some metals are more reactive than the other this can be used to split up the metallic ore, an example of this is the extraction of Titanium which involves the use of several other more reactive metals.
Which elements is most reactive alkali metals or alkali earth metal or carbon family or inert gases?
alkali metals
What are the ranks of the periodic table families from most to least reactive?
Most reactive metals are alkali metals, most reactive nonmetalas are halogens.Least reactive metals are platinum metals; least reactive nonmetals are noble gases.
Are alkali metals considered to be very reactive or very unreactive?
Alkali metals are very reactive metals.
How are minerals extracted from their ores?
metals are extracted from their ores according to their reactivity series.firstly, metals that are more reactive that carbon are extracted by electrolysis whic is breaking the compounds down using electricity.secondly, metals that are less reactive than carbon are extracted by reduction in which carbon is added to the metal ore, carbon react with oxygen and the metal remain by itself pure.example: Zinc oxide + Carbon ----> Zinc + Carbon dioxideGold and Platinum are found in nature by themselves.
How are metals that are less reactive than carbon extracted from their oxides?
When I find out the answer for this bloody exam too, I shall let you know.

reactive metals can often be extracted by electrolysis where there ore is disolved into a solvent and an electric current is passed through.
Fairly reactive metals found as ores?
no because if the metals were reactive then they would react with elements in the air non reactive metals are found in there native state like gold and silver.

What are the Fairly reactive metals found as ores compounds often oxides and carbonates and can be extracted using carbon to reduce the metal compound to the pure metal?
your mums a milf whats a milf?
Which metal oxides will not react with carbon?
Metals which are above Carbon in the reactivity series, eg. Magnesium. These metals need to be extracted by electrolysis.
What metals are fairly reactive and found as ores?
potassium, nickel, carbon
How are metals extractive?
well basically metal is extracted using carbon monoxide
How does metal come from the ground?
through the process of smelting ore Ore is mined from the ground in rock or particle form and then processed using many different techniques. The most basic form of smelting involves the utilization of the different melting points of metal, allowing a smelter to heat ore to a desired temperature and melt out the desired product. This metal is then refined.
What metals can not be extracted by copper?
Copper cannot displace metals that are more reactive than itself. Examples include Sodium, Aluminum, Iron, Magnesium, etc.
Is carbon dioxide reactive to metal surfaces particularly Nb surface and could adsorbed heavily?
Carbon dioxide is not so reactive with metals; any reaction with niobium.
