Why Al cannot be obtained by reductionof aluminium oxide with coke?

The chemical attraction of oxygen to aluminum is greater than that to carbon, so Al oxide 'wins' from C oxide to be formed or stay intact.
Reaction: 2 Al2O3 + 3 C --> 4 Al + 3 CO2 does NOT run to the right, as Fe2O3 does alright.

∙ 12y agoaluminium oxide is ionic in nature. it forms a very strong bond .aluminium is stronger than coke and has stronger affinity on oxygen than on coke.

How do you extract aluminium from Aluminium Oxide?
by using electrolysis
What is name of the compound Al2O3?
Al is the symbol for Aluminum and O is the symbol for oxygen. When oxygen is paired in a compound, it is changed to oxide. The name then is aluminum oxide.
