Characteristic
Aluminium chloride (AlCl3), also known as aluminium trichloride, is the main compound of aluminium and chlorine. It is white, but samples are often contaminated with iron(III) chloride, giving it a yellow color.
Chemical formula:AlCl3
Molar mass:133.341 g/mol (anhydrous)
241.432 g/mol (hexahydrate)
Appearance:white or pale yellow solid, hygroscopic
Density:2.48 g/cm3 (anhydrous)
2.398 g/cm3 (hexahydrate)
Melting point:192.6 °C (378.7 °F; 465.8 K) (anhydrous)
100 °C (212 °F; 373 K) (hexahydrate, dec.)
Boiling point:180 °C (356 °F; 453 K) (sublimes)
Solubility:soluble in hydrogen chloride, ethanol, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride
slightly:soluble in benzene
Vapor pressure:133.3 Pa (99 °C)
13.3 kPa (151 °C)
Viscosity:0.35 cP (197 °C)
0.26 cP (237 °C)
Crystal structure:Monoclinic, mS16
Application
It is mainly produced and consumed in the production of aluminium metal, but large amounts are also used in other areas of the chemical industry.
