Statement 1: Bauxite is an ore of aluminium.Statement 2: Aluminium can be extracted from bauxite by electrolysis.

The statements provided are both correct.

Step 1: Understanding the statements

• Bauxite is indeed an ore of aluminium. An ore is a naturally occurring solid material from which a metal or valuable mineral can be extracted profitably. In this case, Bauxite is the primary ore from which aluminium is extracted.
• Aluminium can be extracted from bauxite by electrolysis. Electrolysis is a process that uses electric current to drive a non-spontaneous reaction.

Step 2: Connecting the statements

• Since Bauxite is an ore of aluminium, it means that aluminium can be obtained from it. The process of obtaining aluminium from bauxite involves several steps, the main one being electrolysis. During electrolysis, aluminium oxide (which is obtained from bauxite) is broken down into aluminium and oxygen.

So, both statements are correct and they are related in that they describe the source of aluminium (bauxite) and the process of extracting aluminium from that source (electrolysis).
