As we all know Aluminum is a metal of silvery white. The outer surface of the metal is actually covered by a very thin layer of the oxide which keeps the metal protected from the air.
But when the oxide layer is somehow damaged aluminum comes into direct contact with the air. It can be now easily attacked by air. When aluminum now without the layer of oxide comes in, it starts reacting to the oxygen.
It will burn as bright white flame to change into aluminum(III) oxide. Chemical Equation:
