"Tin foil" is usually made of (mostly) aluminum. As with any metal, there is a certain amount of impurity present within it (carbon, other metals, etc.). Additionally, aluminum is a very reactive metal, so there is always a thin layer of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) on the surface.

The goal is to boil the water in the pot and have the steam collect on the foil, which will then drain into the other container. Be careful, concentrated steam can cause instant burns.
