In the leaching method, bauxite ore is digested with a concentrated solution of $N a O H$ that produces $X$ .
When $C O_{2}$ gas is passed through the aqueous solution of $X$ , a hydrated compound $Y$ is precipitated.
$X$ and $Y$ are $N a [A l (O H)_{4}]$ and $A l_{2} O_{3} \cdot x H_{2} O$ respectively.
