The density of tin (cast hammered) is 7300 kilogrammes per cubic metre, or 0.264 pounds per cubic inch. Note that the density of tin isn't "fixed" as it has two allotropes. As white tin, it has a density of about 7.365 g/cc, while gray tin has a density of 5.769 g/cc. These figures are derived for tin near room temperature. Note that a third allotrope, brittle tin, exists at more elevated temperatures. A link can be found below.

Why is tin foil made of aluminium and not steel?

Aluminium is used to make tin foil because it is lightweight, flexible, and resists corrosion. Steel, on the other hand, is heavier, less flexible, and prone to rusting. Aluminum's properties make it more suitable for food packaging and cooking applications than steel.
