Identify the process given in following passage and draw neat labelled diagram showing the process.
          Electrolysis of molten mixture of alumina (melting point > 2000⁰C) is done in a steel tank. The tank has a graphite lining on the inner side. This lining does the work of a cathode. A set of graphite rods dipped in the molten electrolyte works as anode. Cryolite (Na₃AlF₆) and fluorspar (CaF₂) are added in the mixture to lower its melting point upto 1000⁰C.
