Explain the following reaction with the balanced equation.
Dry aluminium hydroxide is ignited at 1000 °C
उत्तर
When dry aluminium hydroxide is calcined by at 1000 °C, pure aluminium oxide, called alumina is obtained.
\[\ce{\underset{\text{Aluminium hydroxide}}{2Al(OH)_{3(s)}} ->[heat][1000 °C] \underset{\text{Aluminium oxide}}{Al2O_{3(s)}} + \underset{\text{Water vapour}}{3H2O_{(g)}}}\]
