Extraction of Aluminium from Bauxite

Описание: A simple but detailed lesson on the extraction of aluminium from bauxite.This video is based on the O'level chemistry syllabus. It covers the uses and properties of aluminium, the purification of bauxite and the electrolysis of alumina. It is carefully created with beautiful animation to make it interesting to learners.

It is recommended for candidates preparing for the WASSCE, NECO/SSCE, NABTEB, IGCSE, JAMB and Post-UTME chemistry examinations
