Chemistry Question on General Principles and Processes of Isolation of Elements

In the metallury of aluminium, purified Al2O3Al_2O_3 is mixed with Na3AlF6Na_3AlF_6 or CaF2CaF_2. Na3AlF6Na_3AlF_6 or CaF2CaF_2 lowers the melting point of mixture and increases its conductivity.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

C

If assertion is true but reason is false

D

If both assertion and reason are false

Answer

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

Explanation

Solution

NaAlF6NaAlF _{6} or CaF2CaF _{2} is added to the purified Al2O3Al _{2} O _{3} to lowers the melting point of mixture and increase the cinductivity.
