What is difference between alloy and metals?
An alloy is a mixture of two metals
What are the different applications of electrolysis?
1. electroplating 2. extraction of metals from ores 3. electrolytic refining 4.electrolysis can also be used for coating artificial jewelery with gold to give it an attractive look . 5.electrolysis can also be used for coating cutlery made up of cheap metal with silver to give it an attractive look .
The process of electrolysis used to coat objects with metals is?
galvanisation
Why is electrolysis used to extract certain metals?
Electrolysis can be used for the following purposes:Electroplating a baser metal with a more attractive metal. e.g. electroplating brass with goldRefining of impure metals. e.g. to remove impurities from copperElectrometallurgy - to extract metals from their compounds
Whats the difference between metals and non metals?
One is hard one is soft
What is the difference between isolation an extraction?
Isolation is the process of the seperation of the two metals but extraction is the process in which we get the desired metal from the concentrate.(in general we can say from the minerals and ores)
Why is it important to recycle the metals you extract using electrolysis?
It takes a lot of electric power to refine metals by electrolysis. Such metals therefore are a kind of stored energy. If they are not recycled, that energy is lost.
Why is it important to recycle metals that you extract by electrolysis?
It takes a lot of electric power to refine metals by electrolysis. Such metals therefore are a kind of stored energy. If they are not recycled, that energy is lost, and more energy will be needed to refine more metals by electrolysis to replace them. High energy consumption is a major factor in environmental pollution.
How will you determine the purity of some metals?
use electrolysis

What is one physical difference between transition metals and poor metals?
reactivity
What is the difference between elements and metals?
An element could be a metal.
How many ways of making metals?
by electrolysis by thermal reduction
Name the metals extracted by electrolysis?
aluminium bromide lead
The process of electrolysis used to coat objects with metals is?
galvanisation
How do you fix electrolysis in plumbing?
Do not have dissimilar metals touching the pipes.
