Answer:

Acid are not stored in metal containers because most acids react with iron and carbon that make the steel, making it soluble and over time it would rust out the container. Strong acids, for example, are best stored in PMP or HDPE containers. This is partly because these plastics are chemically inert and so won't react with the substance. ... For this reason, it is not suitable to store certain chemicals in metal containers as they are likely to corrode.
