Question

Write the steps in deducing the chemical formula of Aluminium hydroxide ​

Answer 1

Answer: Step 1:Write the symbols for the radical.

Step 2 :Write the valency below the radicals.

Step 3:Cross multiply the symbols of radicals with their respective valency

Step 4:write down the chemical form of the compound

Explanation:

Answer 2

The chemical formula of Aluminium hydroxide is $\[Al{{(OH)}_{3}}\]$

Explanation:

• The steps for writing the chemical formula is first we should identify the radicals present in aluminium hydroxide.
• After identifying the radicals,we should write the valency of each radicals identified.

• Now the radicals and their valencies are,$\[A{{l}^{3+}}\]$ and $\[O{{H}^{-}}\]$

• Then we need to cross multiply the radical with the valency of the other radical to obtain the chemical formula of the compound.
• Hence the formula becomes,$\[Al{{(OH)}_{3}}\]$
