The reaction between aluminium metal and aqueous solutions of the nitrite ion
Keyword(s):
The reaction between aluminium metal and a 0.1 wt % solution of sodium nitrite at room temperature is described. Initially the reaction is slow, but after an induction period the aluminium corrodes catastrophically. The products of the reaction were identified as ammonia, hydrogen and bayerite. A possible mechanism of the reaction is suggested.
