Heating of an aqueous solution of aluminium chloride to dryness will give

A

`Al(OH)Cl_2`

B

`Al_2O_3`

C

`Al_2Cl_6`

D

`AlCl_3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Aqueous solution of `AICI_3` is acidic due to hydrolysis.
`AlCl_3 + 3H_2O hArr Al(OH)_3 + 3HCl`
On strongly heating `Al(OH)_3` is converted into `Al_2O_3`.
`2Al (OH)_3 overset(Delta)to Al_2O_3 + 3H_2O`
