Aluminium chloride exists as dinner, Al2Cl6 in the solid state as well as in the solution of non-polar solvents such as benzene. When dissolved in acidified aqueous solution, it gives:

1. \(\mathrm{Al}^{3+}+3 \mathrm{Cl}^{-}\)

2. \(\left[\mathrm{Al}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{6}\right]^{3+}+3 \mathrm{Cl}^{-} \)

3. \(\left[\mathrm{Al}(\mathrm{OH})_{6}\right]^{3-}+3 \mathrm{HCl}\)

4. \(\mathrm{Al}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{3}+6 \mathrm{HCl}\)
