What is the difference between aluminum and steel?
Chemically, aluminium is an element, while steel is an alloy consisting mostly of iron. Although most aluminium items you see and use are also Alloys, strictly speaking. Steel is stronger but heavier. They have quite different material qualities.
How do you separate aluminium and steel cans?
Aluminium and steel cans can be separated using a magnet, as steel is magnetic while aluminium is not. By running a magnet over a pile of cans, the steel cans will be attracted to the magnet while the aluminium cans will not, allowing for easy separation.
Why do they make window frames from aluminium and not steel?
Window frames used to be made from steel but aluminium is lighter and does not rust.
What is the properties and is uses of copper aluminium iron and steel?
copper aluminium iron and steel is an excellent conductor of electricity and heat is one of the properties of copper aluminium iron and steel and it is used in conducting electricity.
What are the advantages or disadvantages of steel vs aluminium cars?
Aluminium has some advantages over steel. Since it has a lower density than iron or steel, a car body made from aluminium will be lighter than the same car body made from steel. This results in improved fuel economy. Also, aluminium does not corrode easily, so a car body made from aluminium will corrode less, and may last longer, than one made from steel. However, aluminium is more expensive than steel. So a car made from aluminium is likely to be more expensive than one made from steel.
Which is stronger steel or brass?

How do stainless steel and aluminium react similarly in air?

As a furniture material what is the difference between alluminium and steel?
As construction materials (for any purpose); Aluminium and Steel have many "pros & cons" when measured against one another. It all depends on the intended use of the finished article as to which material is more suitable in it's construction. Aluminium is very light, whereas Steel is relatively heavy. Steel rusts if not galvanised or otherwise treated; Aluminium does not. Aluminium is prone to fatigue and fracture quicker than Steel when placed under tension. Steel is much stiffer than Aluminium and doesn't bend as easily. Aluminium has a far lower heat tollerance than Steel Steel requires "finishing" (Painting or coating) in order to be asthetically pleasing. Aluminium just needs to be clean.
