What is it that ‘Al’ metal cannot be obtained by electrolysis of an aqueous solution of a salt of aluminium?

Solution
Answer:

The reduction potential of aluminium is lower than that of water this means that it has lesser tendency to get reduced than water .
since water has higher reduction potential thus aluminium on electrolysis of an aqueous solution of a salt of aluminium.
