Aluminum is more reactive than iron but it doesn't corrode It is because of aluminium oxide layer. Aluminium outer surface layer is oxidized whenever it came in contact with the air and so result in aluminium oxide layer which is resistive in nature and remain attached to it❤️

Answer:

Aluminum is a very reactive metal. When aluminum is exposed to air , it reacts with the oxygen present in air to form Aluminum oxide. This layer is very unreactive and prevents aluminum from further corrosion. It acts as a corrosion resistant layer. Whereas , Iron easily gets corroded , due to the formation of iron oxide.
