What is a disadvantage of using electrolysis to extract metals?
The metals are too reactive.
Operation of the process requires skilled scientists.
Requires a large amount of energy to melt the compounds and to produce the necessary electricity.
The equipment is too expensive to maintain.

Aluminium at the cathode and oxygen at the anode
Why does the anode need to be replaced in the electrolysis of aluminium oxide?
The oxygen reacts with the carbon electrode to produce carbon dioxide so the blocks reduce in size.
The anode blocks become coated and no longer conduct.
The anode blocks dry out over time.
To keep the anode blocks fresh.
