Hi,
If I mix aluminium (tin foil) with hydrochloric acid I get the following reaction:
2Al(s) + 6HCl(aq) -> 2AlCl3(aq) + 3H2(g)
So I end up with aluminium chloride disolved in the water.
If I boiled the water would I be left with pure aluminium chloride? I'm thinking the water will boil away leaving the AlCl3, which should be a white powder.
