Aluminum in the Al3 + form can be precipitated as Al (OH) 3, adding ammonia to an aluminum solution, but the precipitate is usually gelatinous and difficult to filter. Precipitation from a homogeneous solution provides a more filterable precipitate. The reaction used in this process is the hydrolysis of urea: (image attached)
