Aluminium sulfate is rarely, if ever, encountered as the anhydrous salt. 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 ...
The only stable chalcogenides under normal conditions are aluminium sulfide (Al 2 S 3), selenide (Al 2 Se 3), and telluride (Al 2 Te 3). All three are prepared by direct reaction of their elements at about 1,000 °C (1,832 °F) and quickly hydrolyse completely in water to yield aluminium hydroxide and the respective hydrogen chalcogenide .
Cubic γ-Al 2 O 3 has important technical applications. The so-called β-Al 2 O 3 proved to be NaAl 11 O 17. [18] Molten aluminium oxide near the melting temperature is roughly 2/3 tetrahedral (i.e. 2/3 of the Al are surrounded by 4 oxygen neighbors), and 1/3 5-coordinated, with very little (<5%) octahedral Al-O present.

An alkalide is a chemical compound in which alkali metal atoms are anions (negative ions) with a charge or oxidation state of −1. Until the first discovery of alkalides in the 1970s, [1] [2] [3] alkali metals were known to appear in salts only as cations (positive ions) with a charge or oxidation state of +1. [4]
Rates on a 15-year mortgage stand at an average 6.32% for purchase and 6.34% for refinance — up 3 basis point from 6.29% for purchase and 5 basis point from 6.29% for refinance this time last ...
Triatomic oxygen (ozone, O 3) is a very reactive allotrope of oxygen that is a pale blue gas at standard temperature and pressure. Liquid and solid O 3 have a deeper blue color than ordinary O 2, and they are unstable and explosive. [5] [6] In its gas phase, ozone is destructive to materials like rubber and fabric and is damaging to lung tissue ...
A builder who committed the "bloodthirsty" murder of a 38-year-old woman and then dismembered her body has been jailed for the rest of his life.
The launch of the coins came just ahead of Trump’s inauguration on Monday and follows a broader rise in crypto prices throughout 2024 and early 2025.
