Municipal water treatment facilities often utilize chemical coagulants to aggregate suspended impurities, allowing them to be easily filtered out. A widely used coagulant for this purification process is aluminium sulfate, Al2(SO4)3\text{Al}_2(\text{SO}_4)_3Al2(SO4)3.
Calculate the relative formula mass (MrM_rMr) of aluminium sulfate.
(Relative atomic masses: Al=27\text{Al} = 27Al=27, S=32\text{S} = 32S=32, O=16\text{O} = 16O=16)
