How are the less reactive metals (which are quite low in the reactivity series) extracted? Explain with the help of an example.
Less reactive metals are extracted by the reduction of their oxides by heat alone.
Example: Mercury(II) sulphide ore is roasted in the air when mercury (II) oxide is formed. Under 300℃, Mercury oxide is heated and forms mercury metal.
