★ This is because Al readily reacts with oxygen of air and form really stable aluminum oxide layer on it. This layer is so stable that it does not allow any further reaction of aluminum. Hence it is safe to transport nitric acid in an aluminum container.

Explanation:

This is because Al readily reacts with oxygen of air and form really stable aluminum oxide layer on it. This layer is so stable that it does not allow any further reaction of aluminum. Hence it is safe to transport nitric acid in an aluminum container and Aluminium containers are used to transport nitric acid because the aluminium first reacts with the oxygen of air to form a protective layer of aluminium oxide which prevents further reaction.
