It forms a number of different hydrates, of which the hexadecahydrate Al 2 (SO 4) 3 ·16H 2 O and octadecahydrate Al 2 (SO 4) 3 ·18H 2 O are the most common. The heptadecahydrate, whose formula can be written as [Al(H 2 O) 6 ] 2 (SO 4 ) 3 ·5H 2 O , occurs naturally as the mineral alunogen .
4 ·22 H 2 O, MgAl 2 (SO 4) 4 ·22 H 2 O, NaAl(SO 4) 2 ·6 H 2 O, MgSO 4 ·7H 2 O and Al 2 (SO 4) 3 ·17 H 2 O. [3] [4] The Ancient Greek Herodotus mentions Egyptian alum as a valuable commodity in The Histories. [5] The production of potassium alum from alunite is archaeologically attested on the island Lesbos. [6]
Potassium alum, potash alum, or potassium aluminium sulfate is a chemical compound first mentioned under various Sanskrit names in Ayurvedic medicinal texts such as charak samhita, sushrut samhita, and ashtang hridaya; is chemically defined as the double sulfate of potassium and aluminium, with chemical formula KAl(SO 4) 2.
A variety of compounds of empirical formula AlR 3 and AlR 1.5 Cl 1.5 exist. [22] The aluminium trialkyls and triaryls are reactive, volatile, and colorless liquids or low-melting solids. They catch fire spontaneously in air and react with water, thus necessitating precautions when handling them.
The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.

Ammonium iron(III) sulfate, NH 4 Fe(SO 4) 2 ·12 H 2 O, or NH 4 [Fe(H 2 O) 6](SO 4) 2 ·6 H 2 O, also known as ferric ammonium sulfate (FAS) or iron alum, is a double salt in the class of alums, which consists of compounds with the general formula AB(SO 4) 2 · 12 H 2 O. [2] It has the appearance of weakly violet, octahedrical crystals.
