Given the formation of gibbsite from dissolved aluminum:

See image

1. Balance this reaction (if needed)
2. How many mg of Al(OH)3 would be formed if 3 mg of Al3+ are dissolved in 1 l of water and unlimited OH- is available?
Hint: Assume reaction goes to the right. Ignore equilibrium dissolved Al3+

Expert Solution

Step 1

Aluminium cation reacts with the hydroxide ion to form aluminium hydroxide. The reaction is given below:
