explain why aluminium appears to be in a false position in the reactivity series
Answers
Answer:
Aluminum is actually a highly reactive metal. We don't usually think of it that way because when Aluminum metal oxidizes, it just gets very slightly more dull because the oxide it forms Al2O3 is transparent, not reactive, and looks pretty much like Aluminum metal when it is a thin coating. Unlike Iron where you have a drastic color change between the metal and the oxide, when Aluminum oxidizes on the surface, it's difficult to tell that anything changed even though the thin layer of Al2O3 is protecting the rest of the metal from further oxidation.
Aluminum metal is very reactive. In fact, finely divided non-oxydized Aluminum metal powder is used as fuel in freworks and solid rocket engine fuels. We don't usually see Aluminum in the non-oxydized state, but it is far more reactive than Iron is.
