The surface of alumina is capable of acquiring a change when it is in an aqueous solution. This surface change will have a strong influence on the surrounding ions, particularly those of opposite change known as the counter ions. A site-binding model of the {{{{ gamma }}-alumina/KCl(aq) interface was used to calculated theoretical surface ionization constants and P.Z.C.(Point of zero change) of {{{{ gamma }}-alumina. This paper was carried out to investigate the effect of calcination temperature on the acidic and electrical properties of pure {{{{ gamma }}-alumina prepared by the precipitation method from the Al(NO3)3.9H2O and NH4OH. From the experimental data it was shown that {{{{ gamma }}-alumina have a mainly Br nsted acid site. However, the acidity of {{{{ gamma }}-alumina decreased with increasing calcination temperature at strength Ho +9.3. The surface charge density of {{{{ gamma }}-alumina was increased with electrolyte ionic strength and calcination temperature.
