  1. 1
    Chemical Changes

    Explain why aluminium cannot be extracted from aluminium oxide by heating with carbon.

  2. 2
    Reactivity, Acids and Salts

    Why is aluminium extracted by electrolysis rather than by reduction with carbon?

  3. 3
    Electrolysis

    In the industrial extraction of aluminium, explain why the carbon anodes need to be replaced regularly.

  4. 4
    Energy Changes

    A reaction profile shows the reactants at 150 kJ and the peak (activation energy point) at 195 kJ. Calculate the activation energy.

  5. 5
    Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions

    Explain, in terms of the reaction pathway, why adding a catalyst increases the rate of a reaction without changing the overall energy change of the reaction.
