Flattening an aluminum can makes no difference to its weight. However, a bag full of flattened aluminum cans will weigh much more than a bag full of unflattened aluminum cans, simply because you can fit many more cans in the bag.
Lots of things can be recycled. Many kinds of plastic, cloth (it's good for making paper if nothing else), paper, aluminum, steel ... pretty much any metal can be recycled.
This depends on the size of the can. Because aluminum cans come in many different sizes, and cans from different companies will have different designs, every type of soda can will contain a different amount of aluminum. If this is a word problem on a test or homework, you should ask your teacher to be more specific.
Approximately 21 cans to one US pound.
1 minute = 3 600 seconds = 3,6 kiloseconds
Around 105,784 cans are recycled a minute, so if you multiply that 1440 (minutes in day) about 152,328,960 cans are recycled in a day.An average of 113,204 aluminum cans are recycled every minute of every day
It takes 20 times less energy to make a can from recycled aluminum, so, just counting the energy (ignoring the costs of mining and transport), you could make 320 cans out of recycled aluminum for the same cost as 16 cans from bauxite (aluminum ore).
350,000 every minute.
As many times as you want-there's no limit for recycling aluminum
It takes less than an hour to turn recycled aluminum cans into great thick rolls of aluminum. It takes many days to mine the bauxite, refine it, transport it, smelt it and turn it into great thick rolls of aluminum. So don't throw away those cans!
Items that can typically be recycled include paper, cardboard, glass containers, aluminum cans, plastic bottles, and various metals. It's important to check with your local recycling program for specific guidelines on what can be recycled in your area.
Very few. Usually aluminum cans are used before being discarded. For example, they are filled with softdrink, then sold, and then discarded. So technically, not many aluminum cans are actually 'wasted' each year because they are 'used' in the first place.
Roughly 3,300 empty (obviously) 12 oz. aluminum cans.
Wood can't be "recycled" in the sense that paper, glass, or aluminum cans can be recycled, but there are many ways to reuse wood. Wood from houses is often re-used, for example, to build new houses. Wood can also be chopped down into mulch and used in landscaping, or to make particle board.
