उत्तर
In the metallurgy of aluminium graphide anode is oxidised to carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
Explanation:
\[\ce{2Al2O3 + 3C -> 4Al + 3CO2}\]
This process of electrolysis is widely known as Hall-Heroult process. Thus, electrolysis of the molten mass is carried out in an electrolytic cell using carbon electrodes. The oxggen liberated at anode reacts with the carbon of anode producing \[\ce{CO}\] and \[\ce{CO2}\].
