Chloride inclusions (MgCl 2, NaCl, CaCl 2, …) are a special type of inclusion as they are liquid in liquid metal. When aluminium solidifies, they form spherical voids similar to hydrogen gas porosity but the void contains a chloride crystal formed when aluminium became colder.
Aluminium chloride, also known as aluminium trichloride, is an inorganic compound with the formula AlCl 3. It forms a hexahydrate with the formula [Al(H 2 O) 6 ]Cl 3 , containing six water molecules of hydration .
The variation most commonly used in deodorants and antiperspirants is Al 2 Cl(OH) 5 (dialuminium chloride pentahydroxide). Aluminium chlorohydrate is also used as a coagulant in water and wastewater treatment processes to remove dissolved organic matter and colloidal particles present in suspension.
Tetrachloroaluminate [AlCl 4] − is an anion formed from aluminium and chlorine.The anion has a tetrahedral shape and is isoelectronic with silicon tetrachloride.Some tetrachloroaluminates are soluble in organic solvents, creating an ionic non-aqueous solution, making them suitable as component of electrolytes for batteries.
Aluminium monochloride, or chloridoaluminium is the metal halide with the formula AlCl. Aluminium monochloride as a molecule is thermodynamically stable at high temperature and low pressure only. [2]
According to the CRC Handbook of Inorganic Compounds, aluminium triacetate is a white, water-soluble solid and is usually prepared from aluminium chloride or directly from aluminium by heating in an acetic acid solution with acetic anhydride. [1] 3 CH 3 COOH + AlCl 3 → Al(CH 3 CO 2) 3 + 3 HCl 6 CH 3 COOH + 2 Al → 2 Al(CH 3 CO 2)
Such solutions are acidic as this cation can act as a proton donor, progressively hydrolysing to [Al(H 2 O) 5 (OH)] 2+, [Al(H 2 O) 4 (OH) 2] +, and so on. As pH increases these mononuclear species begin to aggregate together by the formation of hydroxide bridges, [ 2 ] forming many oligomeric ions, such as the Keggin ion [Al 13 O 4 (OH) 24 (H 2 ...
Al(Hg) may be prepared by either grinding aluminium pellets or wire in mercury, or by allowing aluminium wire to react with a solution of mercury(II) chloride in water. [2] [3] [1] This amalgam is used as a chemical reagent to reduce compounds, such as of imines to amines. The aluminium is the ultimate electron donor, and the mercury serves to ...
