The formula for aluminum oxide is Al2O3, which means that, if aluminum oxide is ionically bonded, every formula mass of aluminum oxide contains three O-2 ions. In this instance, 0.65 formula masses of aluminum oxide would contain 3 X 0.65 or 1.95 moles of O2-. If aluminum oxide were covalently bonded, it would not contain any O-2 ions.
Steps to take: Write the chemical formula : Al2O3 Calculate the number of moles for aluminum oxide. You should know the formula which is the mass given (0.051g) divided by the Mass of aluminum oxide. Since there is '2' moles of Aluminium you multiplly the number of moles calculated for aluminum oxide by 2. Then you have calculated the number of Ions.
iron(II) oxide is FeO and has two ions Fe2+ and O2-

Metallic aluminum has just one peripheral layer of aluminum oxide.
There are 3 ions in the formula Al2SO4 (2 aluminum and 1 sulfate), but this formula is wrong. The formula of aluminum sulfate is Al2(SO4)3 which contains 5 ions: 2 aluminum ions and 3 sulfate ions.
Aluminum ions are positive, and have three neutrons in it.
The number of sodium ions is 16,518.10e23.
Two, Aluminum and Oxygen.
AL3 plus and O2 negative will form Aluminum Oxide. It has many names such as corundum and alumina. It is an amphoteric oxide.
For the classical iron oxide and aluminum thermite, the products of the reaction are aluminum oxide (Al2O3) and iron (Fe). However, there are many kinds of thermite, but they always produce the pure metal from the oxide.
Aluminum is 3+ and chloride is 1-. So, you need 3 chloride ions to neutralize 1 aluminum ion.
