Aluminum oxide typically forms in a crystal shape known as hexagonal close-packed (hcp) structure. This structure consists of closely-packed layers of aluminum and oxygen atoms arranged in a hexagonal pattern.
In corundum (aluminum oxide), the ratio of aluminum cations (Al3+) to oxide anions (O2-) is 2:3. This means that there are two aluminum cations for every three oxide anions in the crystal lattice structure of corundum.
Al is the symbol for Aluminum and O is the symbol for oxygen. When oxygen is paired in a compound, it is changed to oxide. The name then is aluminum oxide.
No, aluminum oxide is not magnetic.
When you mix aluminum and oxygen, you get aluminum oxide. If you mix iron with aluminum oxide, the aluminum will react with the iron oxide, forming a thermite reaction that produces molten iron and aluminum oxide slag.
It will form a mixture of the two compounds.

Al2O3 is the chemical formula of aluminium oxide.

Al2O3 - aluminum oxide (dialuminium trioxide); this oxide is not a cation or anion but a chemical molecular substance.
Bauxite and corundum are both aluminum minerals. Bauxite is the primary ore of aluminum from which aluminum is extracted, while corundum is a naturally occurring crystal form of aluminum oxide known for its hardness and use in abrasives.
Aluminum oxide is Al2O3 and when heated it is still Al2O3, so heating aluminum oxide does nothing to it.
Aluminum and oxygen form aluminum oxide. Aluminum and iodine form aluminum iodide.
yes I don't know about in normal form (like powdered), but crystal aluminium oxide is know as a sapphire(or a ruby if it has red impurities). Sapphires and Rubies have a hardness of 9 on the Mohs scale (diamond is 10) they are the second hardest natural material.
Because it consists of impurities (which give it the red color) spread evenly throughout an aluminum oxide crystal structure.
It will form a mixture of the two compounds.
