The process of electrolysis used to coat objects with metals is?
galvanisation
What process is involved in making toys and other objects made of metals?
production
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
What is the bonding process for powdered metals?
The process is called sintering and is based on atoms diffusion.
What ways are there to reduce extracting metals?
If you take iron ore, which is iron oxide, and heat it with coal (carbon) you end up with Iron and carbon dioxide. This process is called reducing. This works for most common metals like iron and copper but does not work for aluminium. This must be reduced by electrolysis because it is too reactive for carbon. There are some other limited processes for reducing of ores of rarer metals.
The process of electrolysis used to coat objects with metals is?
galvanisation
What are some interesting uses of the science of electrolysis?
The science of electrolysis is used in the production of aluminum, potassium, chlorine, and magnesium. Electrolysis is also used in anodization, a process which makes the surface of metals resistant to corrosion.
What is the methord to extract reactive metals fom their compoundsby passing a current through them?
This process is known as electrolysis.
What process involves extracting metals from other substances or alloys?
Electrolysis... Some people say electro refining
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
How many ways of making metals?
by electrolysis by thermal reduction
Name the metals extracted by electrolysis?
aluminium bromide lead
How do you fix electrolysis in plumbing?
Do not have dissimilar metals touching the pipes.
