(a)[2]
Name the changes of state shown by A and B in the diagram of solid aluminium, liquid aluminium and aluminium gas.
(b)[4]
Use the kinetic particle model to describe the differences between solid aluminium and liquid aluminium in terms of particle arrangement and particle separation.
(c(i))[1]
Name the principal ore of aluminium.
(c(ii))[1]
Explain why aluminium is extracted by electrolysis rather than by reduction with carbon.
(d)[1]
Describe how this equation shows that iron(III) oxide is reduced. $\text{Fe}_2\text{O}_3 + 2\text{Al} \rightarrow 2\text{Fe} + \text{Al}_2\text{O}_3$
(e)[2]
State one other use of aluminium. Give a reason for this use in terms of the properties of aluminium.
(f)[1]
Deduce the electronic structure of aluminium. Use the Periodic Table to assist you.
