Aluminum is highly reactive metal yet it is used to make utensils for cooking |
|
Answer» As it is good conductor of heat Aluminum is especially used because of the following reasons:-Its high reactivity leads to formation of aluminum oxide when it reacts with oxygen. The aluminum oxide prevents it from further corrosion as it acts as a protective layer. The reaction that takes place is as follows:4Al + 3O2 -------> 2Al2O3- Aluminum is also used because it is a good conductor of heat.-Aluminum is also relatively cheap and that is why it is used widely in making utensils. Because they r good conductro of heat |
