Q47 / 170 · Manipal (MET) 2021 · Chemistry
When the more electropositive metal displace less electropositive metals form their salt solution this process is called:
- Aauto reduction
- Belectro reduction
- Correct answerChydrometallurgy
- Dnone of these
Solution
When more electropositive metal displace less electropositive metals from their salt solution, this is reduction by precipitation and the process is called hydrometallurgy.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
