On the solubility of aluminum acetate
The world has asked whether aluminum acetate is soluble or not. To understand this, we should consider the physical and chemical properties.

Aluminum acetate, its properties are related to the interaction of anions and cations. Acetate is the root of organic weak acids; aluminum ions, metal cations are also. The combination of the two, the dissolution in water, is controlled by many factors.

View the principles of dissolution, the dissolution of ionic compounds lies in the mutual attraction of ions and water molecules to form hydrated ions. When aluminum acetate encounters water, acetate and aluminum ions or the polarity of water molecules attract and disperse in water.

However, its dissolution is not inevitable. Due to the fact that aluminum ions have a certain tendency to hydrolyze, they can combine with hydroxide in water to form a colloid or precipitate of aluminum hydroxide; acetate can also hydrolyze and interact with hydrogen ions. The hydrolysis of the two affects each other, or the dissolution of aluminum acetate is complicated.

According to the actual test, aluminum acetate is soluble under certain conditions. If the water temperature is suitable, and the solution environment does not have too many factors that interfere with its dissolution, such as specific pH, etc., aluminum acetate can partially dissolve in water and ionize acetate ions and aluminum ions. However, when the environment changes, such as pH imbalance and hydrolysis intensifies, its solubility or inhibition, and even precipitation occurs. Therefore, the solubility of aluminum acetate cannot be generalized. Depending on the specific conditions, it may have a certain solubility in a suitable temperature, pH, and other environments. If the environment is not suitable, the dissolution situation may change.
