Ions and charges= Al+3 SO3-2
The charges must add up to zero, in order for two +3 aluminum ions to cancel out three -2 sulfite ions. Al+3 Al+3 SO3-2 SO3-2 SO3-2
So simply put : Al2(SO3) 3

The chemical formula for aluminum sulfite is Al₂(SO₃)₃, which combines two aluminum ions with three sulfite ions to ensure the compound is electrically neutral.
