This is because aluminium reacts with oxygen forming a layer on it which makes the metal unreactive and thus, helps in making utensils as they do not rust.

Answer:

Aluminium easily combines with oxygen but still it can be used for making kitchen utensils becoz aluminium form a layer over the surface.

4Al + 3O2 ------>2Al2O3 . As Al2O3 forms a protective layer on the utensils and hence increases the lifespan of the utensils.
