Chapter 21, Problem 21.59QP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The compounds of aluminum has to be used as examples to explain amphoterism.

Concept introduction:

  • There are many metals copper, zinc, aluminum, lead, tin, and beryllium forms their amphteric oxide.
  • For our problem Al2O3, Al(OH)3 are the best examples for amphoterism compounds of alumuinum.
