Helllooo!!

Aluminium reacts with steam to form aluminium oxide and hydrogen gas.

2Al + 3H2O----------Al2O3+ 3H2O

Hey
Here's your answer!!

When steam is passed over Aluminium, aluminium oxide is formed along with a gas which burns with a pop sound when a burning splinter is brought near it. This gas is hydrogen.
Aluminium oxide is formed in the beginning and it forms a protective layer on the aluminium and stops the reaction. But on increasing the temperature further, the protective coating breaks, evolving hydrogen again.

2Al + 3H20 (steam) --> Al2O3 + 3H2.

Hope it helps!!
