During the electrolysis of cryolite, aluminium and fluorine are formed in ...... molar ratio :

  • 1:2

  • 2:3

  • 1:1

  • 1:3


B.

2:3

Electrolysis of cryolite can be explained as

                     Na3AlF6  3NaF + AlF3 4AlF3     4Al3+ + 12F-+12e-            -12e- 4Al                             6F2(At cathode)          (At anode)So, the molar ratto of Al and F2, is 4 : 6 = 2 : 3.
