1.	Give reasonsConc. HNO_3 can be transported in aluminium container.
Answer» Solution :Concentrated `HNO_3` can be stored and transported in aluminium containers as it reacts with aluminium to FORM a thin protective OXIDE LAYER on the aluminium SURFACE. This oxide layer renders aluminium passive. `2Al_((s)) + 6HNO_(3(Conc.)) to Al_2O_(3(s)) + 6NO_(2(g)) + 3H_2O_((l))`
