Predict the precipitate produced by mixing an al(no3)3 solution with a naoh solution. write the net ionic equation for the reaction. (include the states of matter.)

Al(NO3)3(aq) + 3NaOH(s) --> Al(OH)3 (s) + 3NaNO3 (aq)

The precipitate here is Al(OH)3 (s), since the solid reactant is the precipitate in the aqueous solution. Usually, it is okay to assume in basic chemistry that the transition metal is going to be part of the compound that is the precipitate, especially in an acidic salt and a strong base reaction that we have here.

Rethink and reinvent
