Question

Consider the formation of gibbsite from dissolved aluminum as depicted below:

Al³⁺ + OH^- ----> Al(OH)_{3 (gibbsite)}

a) balance this reaction (if necessary)
b) predict how many mg of Al(OH)₃ would be formed if 3 mg of Al³⁺ are dissolved in 1 liter of water and “unlimited” OH^- is available (assume this reaction goes completely to the right; there’s no worry about equilibrium dissolved Al³⁺).
