- Hydrochloric Acid + Aluminium Carbonate → Aluminium Chloride + Carbon Dioxide + Water
- 6HCl + Al2(CO3)3 → 2AlCl3 + 3CO2 + 3H2O
- Sulphuric Acid + Aluminium Carbonate → Aluminium Sulphate + Carbon Dioxide + Water
- 3H2SO4 + Al2(CO3)3 → 2AlSO4 + 3CO2 + 3H2O
- Nitric Acid + Aluminium Carbonate → Aluminium Nitrate + Carbon Dioxide + Water
- 6HNO3 + Al2(CO3)3 → 2Al(NO3)3 + 3CO2 + 3H2O
