| Method of obtaining metal | What metals are obtained | Example reaction |
|---|---|---|
| 1) Pyrometallurgy - reduction of metals from ores at high temperatures using strong reducing agents (coke C, carbon monoxide CO, etc.) | Many metals are obtained (W, Cr, Mo, Sn, Mn, Zn), but in the form of alloys or impure metals. Also, less active metals like iron, tin, zinc. | \( \text{Fe}_2\text{O}_3 + 3\text{CO} \rightarrow 2\text{Fe} + 3\text{CO}_2 \) \( \text{SnO}_2 + 2\text{C} \rightarrow \text{Sn} + 2\text{CO} \) |
| 2) Hydrometallurgy - reduction of metals using less active metals or hydrogen. | Relatively active metals that are difficult to obtain by pyrometallurgy, or pure metals. For example, copper, lead, nickel, cadmium, etc. | \( \text{CuSO}_4 + \text{Fe} \rightarrow \text{FeSO}_4 + \text{Cu} \downarrow \) \( \text{ZnO} + \text{H}_2 \rightarrow \text{Zn} + \text{H}_2\text{O} \) |
| 3) Electrolysis - reduction of metal salts or oxides using electric current. | Highly reactive metals (alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, aluminum) and also some less reactive metals like copper, nickel, etc. | \( 2\text{NaCl} \text{(melt)} \xrightarrow{\text{electrolysis}} 2\text{Na} + \text{Cl}_2 \uparrow \) \( \text{Al}_2\text{O}_3 \text{(in cryolite)} \xrightarrow{\text{electrolysis}} 2\text{Al} + \frac{3}{2}\text{O}_2 \uparrow \) |
