Question

A solution of aluminum chloride is mixed with a solution of potassium hydroxide to produce a precipitate of aluminum hydroxide and aqueous potassium chloride.

Find Balanced chemical equation
Find complete ionic equation

Answer 1

AlCl3 + KOH -> Al(OH)3 + KCl (aq)
Balanced equation:
1 AlCl3 (aq) + 3 KOH (aq) -> 1 Al(OH)3 (s) + 3 KCl (aq)
Ionic equation:
1 Al + 1 Cl3 + 3 K + 3 OH -> 1 Al(OH)3 + 3 K + 3 Cl
