Detailed information about the Al + 3H2SO4 -> Al2(SO4)3 + 3H2equation:
-
Reaction conditions
- This reaction occurs at room temperature.
-
Reaction process
- When Aluminium reacts with sulfuric acid, Aluminium replaces hydrogen in the sulfuric acid to form Aluminium sulfate and hydrogen.
- Aluminum, being a metal, has the ability to react with acid to form salt and hydrogen.
-
Observations
- When the reaction occurs, gas bubbles (hydrogen) appear attached to the pieces of Aluminium, causing them to rise.
- The reaction environment changes from clear to cloudy due to the incomplete dissolution of Aluminium sulfate in water.
