The correct answer is:
\(\mathrm{Ca}_3 \mathrm{Al}_2 \mathrm{O}_6\).
Tricalcium aluminate \(3 \mathrm{CaO} \cdot \mathrm{Al}_2 \mathrm{O}_3\) - Calcium aluminate cements are hydraulic cements made primarily from limestone and bauxite. They are well adapted for use in refractory (high temperature resistant) concretes. e.g. furnace linings.
