In the extraction of aluminium, bauxite is dissolved in cryolite because
It acts as a solvent
It reduces melting point of aluminium oxide
It increases the resistance of aluminium oxide
Bauxite becomes active
The reaction of $\mathrm{H}_{3} \mathrm{N}_{3} \mathrm{B}_{3} \mathrm{Cl}_{3}$ $(A)$ with $\mathrm{LiBH}_{4}$ in tetrahydrofurane gives inorganic benzene $(B)$. Further, the reaction of $(A)$ with $(C)$ leads to $\mathrm{H}_{3} \mathrm{N}_{3} \mathrm{B}_{3}(\mathrm{Me})_{3}$. than Compounds $(\mathrm{B})$ and $(\mathrm{C})$ respectively, are
In the metallurgy of aluminium, cryolite is mixed in the molten state because it
Inorganic graphite is:
Which of the following mineral does not contain aluminium?
Suggest reasons why the $B-F$ bond lengths in $BF_3\, (130\, pm)$ and $BF_4^- \,(143\, pm)$ differ.
