Abstract
This demonstration deals with the amphoteric behavior of Al3+ ions in aqueous solution. Slow addition of OH- to an Al3+ containing solution results in the formation of a precipitate which redissolves upon further addition of OH- .

Brett Criswell , Holly M. Bevsek , Carole BennettJournal of Chemical Education2006 83 (8), 1167High-school chemistry curricula have often been maligned for being too long on theoryand too short on applied chemistry. Certainly, very little consideration is given in most curricula to the rich arena of descriptive chemistry, particularly helping ...
