  2. Why can’t Aluminium be extracted by using Carbon ? Aluminium is more reactive than carbon Titanium can't be extracted by reducing the ore using carbon as a cheap reducing agent. The problem is that titanium forms a carbide, TiC, if it is heated with carbon, so you don't get the pure metal that you need. The presence of the carbide makes the metal very brittle Titanium metal is an example of metallic bonding Aluminium is more expensive than Titanium T/F Aluminium and Titanium Quiz
