Answer:

The chemical formula Al(ClO)₃ represents the aluminum hypochlorite which is a salt compound.

Explanation:

  • In water, it does not dissociate into hydrogen or hydroxide ions, so it is neither an acid nor a base.
  • The aluminum hypochlorite salt consists of aluminum cations (Al3+) and chlorite anions (ClO2-). Neither hydrogen ions nor hydroxide ions are produced when it dissociates in water.
  • The individual ions, however, can act as Lewis acids since ClO2- is the conjugate base of the chlorous acid (HClO2) and Al3+ accepts electron pairs from Lewis bases.
  • These type of compounds mostly acts as salt as they are neutral or slightly acidic.
  • They usually dissociate in water and doesn't produce hydrogen ion.
