No, it cannot be extracted this way as aluminium is a much stronger reducing agent than carbon and has greater affinity to oxygen.
It is rather extracted by the process of electrolysis by passing electricity through molten aluminum ore which is bauxite mixed with cryolite.

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.
What metals can be extracted from their oxides using carbon?
The first few in the reactivity series... copper, lead, platinum and silver.. Gold occurs native.
Why cant carbon be used to extract aluminium from its ore?
Aluminium cannot be extracted by reduction with carbon as aluminium is more reactive than the carbon. Instead electolysis must be used, which is a much more expensive method of extracting a metal from it's ore.
Are sulfur carbon and oxygen oxides?
No, sulfur, carbon and oxygen are elements not oxides.
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?

Ruby and sapphire are oxides of?
Sapphire and ruby are oxides of Aluminium Sapphire and ruby are oxides of Aluminium
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 are the types of oxides?
Examples: uranium oxides, sodium oxides, lead oxides, aluminium oxide, plutonium oxides etc.

What are neutral oxides of carbon?
The oxides of carbon are CO and CO2.
Are sulfur carbon and oxygen oxides?
No, sulfur, carbon and oxygen are elements not oxides.

What does not decompose when heated with a Bunsen burner?
For example stable oxides as aluminium oxide.
What happens if you heat poo?
A thermal degradation reaction; continuing heating at at higher temperature carbon dioxide, water, nitrogen and sulfur oxides, residual ash are obtained.
How can you separate aluminium hydroxide and iron oxide?
If the iron oxide is Fe3O4 you can use a magnet.This is possible because magnetite has strong magnetic properties.For the separation from other iron oxides aluminium hydroxide can be dissolved in alkalis; iron oxides are not soluble in alkalis.
