Write the chemical equations involved in the leaching of bauxite ore to prepare pure alumina.
Hello
The Bayer's process is the industrial process of refining Bauxite to produce pure alumina.
Chemical reactions involved are as follows :
Al2O3.2H2O→2NaAlO2+3H2O
NaAlO2+2H2O→NaOH+Al(OH)3
2Al(OH)3→Al2O3+3H2O
