yes.Aluminium oxide form the surface of the Aluminium that can prevent it from reacting with oxygen and water in the air.

What are the two main textures of rock?
Porous and Non-Porous
Is basalt a porous rock?
Some basalts can be quite porous, others may be non-porous.
What is a non metal oxide?
A non metal oxide is a compound of a non metal with oxygen. metals are in the center or left hand side of the periodic table of chemical elements. non metals are to the right hand side and are separated from the metals along the aluminum/ Gallium/Germanium/antimony/polonium line. A non metal oxide is a non metallic element reacted with oxygen e.g. Water (H2O), nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide
Is CaO a metal oxide or non metal oxide?
Calcium is a metal, therefore this is a metal oxide.
What are two types of Non-Porous rocks?
granite and slate
What is another name for a waterproof rock?
A waterproof rock is sometimes called a "hydrophobic rock" because it repels water due to its surface characteristics.
What is pilling bedworth rule?
According to Pilling-Bedworth rule, if the volume of oxide layer formed is greater than the volume of the metal, the oxide layer is protective and non-porous. However if the oxide layer formed has volume lesser than that of the underlying metal then the oxide layer is porous and non-protective.
What is the type of bond of aluminum oxide?
Ionic bonding is present in aluminium oxide.
Is a concrete non porous?
There are two types porous and non porous. You can also seel porous concrete to make it non porous.
Is concrete non porous?
There are two types porous and non porous. You can also seel porous concrete to make it non porous.
Is concrete a non-porous surface?
There are two types porous and non porous. You can also seel porous concrete to make it non porous.
Is sapphire a silicate?
Sapphire's chemical composition is aluminum oxide, Al2O3.
Does aluminum or copper produce more electricity?
Copper is more electrically conductive than aluminum (this is because aluminum forms a monomolecular layer of non-conductive aluminum oxide on its surface).
Is vinyal a non porous surface?
Yes vinyl is non porous
What is non porous rock?
Non-porous rocks are solid materials that do not allow water or other fluids to pass through them due to the absence of interconnected pore spaces. This lack of porosity prevents the storage or movement of fluids within the rock, making them impermeable. Examples of non-porous rocks include granite, basalt, and marble.
What are the few names of adsorbing substances?
Adsorbsion happens on the surfaces of metals; platinum is particularly good, but any other metal such as steel, zinc, etc., can do it. It happens less with aluminum because of the protective layer of aluminum oxide, but in a non-oxygen atmosphere, if you remove the aluminum oxide, then yes, aluminum would also adsorb.
What is the opposite of porous in science?
impermeable or non-porous.
