Does magnets stick to aluminum?

Despite aluminum being the most abundant metal on Earth, it does not interact with magnetic materials. The reason is a little complicated , but basically it's because the atoms, specifically the electrons, in solid aluminum are too far apart from each other to induce cohesive allignment of their magnetic dipoles. Hence the overall magnetic effects of the electron average out to zero, even in the presence of common magnets.

The force is felt strongest on magnets which experience what is known as ferromagnetism, the strongest type of magnetism. When it is liquefied and cooled, oxygen can exhibit properties of magnetism. There are also non-magnetic substances that are not affected by a magnetic field or magnetism, these include plastics, gases, copper and aluminum,.
