Question

Aluminium oxide react with sodium hydroxide

Answer 1

Answer:

Formation of Sodium Aluminate along with water.

Explanation:

Al2O3 (aqueous) + 2 NaOH (aqueous) --> 2 NaAlO2 (aqueous) + H2O (liquid)

Here is a proper balanced chemical equation for u.

Hope it helps u !!!!

Answer 2

The reaction of aluminum oxide with sodium hydroxide is as follows:

1. The reaction between oxidized aluminum/ aluminum oxide and sodium hydroxide produces sodium aluminate and water as a result or product of the reaction.
2. This reaction requires a high range of temperature i.e. about 700°C(celsius) to 1200°C.
3. An amphoteric substance is a substance or a compound that reacts with both acids and bases.
4. Aluminum oxide Al2O3 is one such amphoteric substance.
5. It acts as an acid when it reacts with a base. And it acts as a base on reacting with acids. As a result, it neutralizes the reaction and gives salt and water as products.
6. Here, it reacts with sodium hydroxide to give a salt sodium aluminate and water.
7. The balanced equation for the reaction is: Al2O3 + 2NaOH(aq) --> 2NaAlO2(aq) + H2O(l)
