Why do you use molten NaCl in electrolysis instead of an aqueous solution of NaCl?
Molten salt electrolysis is used to obtain sodium and chlorine. Electrolysis of the water solution is used to obtain sodium hydroxide and hydrogen.
What happens at the negative electrode during the electrolysis of molten aluminium?
Al3+ + 3e- --> Al(metal)
How do they get potassium?

How do you fuse sodium chloride?
The melting point of sodium chloride is 801 0C. The electrolysis of molten sodium chloride produce sodium and chlorine.
How do you separate chlorine from salt?
Electrolyse the molten salt. This will form sodium at the cathode and Cl2 at the anode. Electrolysis of an aqueous solution odf salt will produce hydrogen at the cathode and chlorine gas at the anode.
