When you cook something, lets say a pizza, in the oven, and you put it on aluminum foil rather than a cookie sheet.how come the aluminum foil isn't too hot to touch when you go to pull it out?
How To Recover Aluminum Chloride
I just had to laugh at everyone saying that Aluminum is a poor conductor of heatIt's a wonderful conductor!!! That's one of the reasons why we use it in cook, i.epots and pans?! Some people are confusing THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY with SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITYFor one thing, aluminum foil is very thinWhen you open the oven, it quickly cools the foil downThere is something called specific heat capacityIt's basically states that certain molecules, materials, etccan store a certain amount of energyHeatWater has a high SHC, while aluminum is relatively lowA block of water, a block of aluminum, and a block of air in an oven at a temperature of 350, water will hold more heat out of the three, followed by air, then aluminum.
First of all, the Aluminum Chloride is not bubbling outIt is still in solution Once all the Copper metal has separated out, either filter the solution or decant the solution which contains the AlCl3Evaporate the waterAlCl3 is not volatile and will eventually crystallize outThen, just scoop it offOn the other hand, Recovering it quantitatively is more rigorousYou need to make sure you minimize sample losses.
