because sodium is more reactive than carbon and therefore a displacement reaction cannot take place- which would normally separate sodium from its ore.

Why cant titanium be extracted from its ore by carbon?
carbon cannot be used to extract titanium because titanium is more reactive than carbon so therefore, a displacement reaction cannot happen hope this helps :)
Why is distill water used in sodium extract?
To obtain a purer product.
Why distilled water is used to make sodium extract?
because sodium metal immediately react with water and causes explosion thats why we use distilled water in preparing sodium extract by asghar tariq nohri
How can carbon be used to extract a metal from its ore?
Metals are extracted from ores. An ore is a rock that contains enough of a mineral (metal compound) for the metal to be extracted from it. Most metals are extracted from an ore by reduction with carbon or by electrolysis.
Why is carbon used to extract iron from it's ore?
The carbon combines with the oxygen in the ore, separating it from the iron.Excess carbon alloys with the extracted iron, hardening it.

What method can be used to extract large pure sodium chloride crystals from sea water?
Evaporating the water sodium chloride is obtained.

Why is carbon not used to extract gold?
Because gold is already found in its 'native'o or unreacted state
How do you extract gold from aqua regia?
Sodium Monobisulfate (may have spelled it wrong). In a majority of my research, this is the product used.
How do you use baking soda to remove acids from organic extract?
Baking soda is sodium bicarbonate. Sodium bicarbonate is a base compound. So it can be used to remove acidity.
How many elements are Na2CO2?
How many capital letters are in there? 3.Each element is distinguished by its capital letter.Na - SodiumC - CarbonO - OxygenTherefore there are three different elements.
Why is carbon used to extract metal from ores?
It's used as a reducing agent. The carbon (or specifically the Carbon Monoxide produced by the heat of the furnace) "grabs" the oxygen from the ore (an oxide) producing Carbon Dioxide and the metal. The combustion of the carbon also provides the heat required for the extraction. If the ore is not an oxide, another method of extraction needs to be used.
