Sufficiently pure aluminum is superconducting at 1.2 Kelvin. Many of the pure elements are superconductors at sufficiently low temperatures, but some of them require special conditions, such as platinum. Platinum doesn't superconduct unless it's in nanoparticles.

Can aluminum foil turn into a superconductor?

No, aluminum foil cannot turn into a superconductor. Superconductors are materials that can conduct electricity with zero electrical resistance, whereas aluminum foil is a good conductor of electricity but not a superconductor. Superconductivity requires specific materials and conditions that aluminum foil does not possess.

What resistance does a superconductor have?

An ideal superconductor has exactly zero losses, thus resistance is zero.


Is water a superconductor?

No, water is not a superconductor. Superconductors are materials that can conduct electricity with no resistance at very low temperatures. Water does not have the properties necessary to exhibit superconductivity.


How does a superconductor floating work?

A superconductor floating works by using the Meissner effect, which causes the superconductor to repel magnetic fields. This creates a magnetic field that locks the superconductor in place above a magnet, allowing it to float without any friction or resistance.
