So far as durability goes, aluminum beats iron in only one category. Iron oxidizes readily...so does aluminum but, the difference is that aluminum forms an oxide layer that is impermeable to oxygen. When iron rusts, the rust offers no protection and the metal continues to oxidize. Stainless steel is an iron alloy that is protected from oxidation because the chromium in the mixture provides a protective oxide layer, like aluminum's.
Iron & Aluminium are much more abundantly found as compared to platinum.Moreover in reactivity series aluminium & iron are found to much more reactive than platinum,platinum is least reactive.
Aluminum has about 1/3 the density of iron, therefore a given volume of aluminum would weigh about 1/3 as much as the same amount of iron. So no, aluminum is not heavier than iron; far from it.
Steel is more useful compared to Iron because it doesn't rust as easily and it is more durable than iron. Iron is more maleable than steel which makes steel more useful than iron.
Steel can be produced more cheaply than iron because the raw materials needed to make steel (iron ore, coal, and limestone) are more abundant and less expensive than the higher quality iron ore needed to produce pure iron. Additionally, the steel-making process is more efficient and can be automated to a greater extent, reducing labor costs compared to traditional iron production methods.
Yes because Aluminium has 13 protons in its nucleus, 13 electrons and roughly the same number of neutrons. Lead has 82 protons in its nucleus, 82 electrons spinning around it and a few more than 82 neutrons. So the lead atom is over six times heavier than the aluminium atom. If its only 4 times more dense then it must be that the lead atoms are bigger or not so closely packed together.
Aluminium corrugated sheets are generally stronger than galvanised iron corrugated sheets because of the inherent strength of aluminium as a metal compared to iron. Aluminium is also more resistant to corrosion, making it a more durable option for outdoor applications.
Enthalpy of combustion of aluminium is much more intensive than that of iron.
aluminum is more durable than iron.
Aluminium is lighter than steel and much more durable
Iron is heavier than aluminium. Aluminium is easier to form, shape and machine.
1. iron is having more number of positively charged electrons than aluminium 2. aluminium consists of negatively charged ions in protons 3.due to convection, and gaps between atoms, the atoms vibrate and heat up quickly.
Aluminium is more expensive than iron because of its lower abundance in the Earth's crust. It is also more costly to extract and refine aluminium due to the energy-intensive process of electrolysis. Additionally, aluminium has a higher demand and is used in a wide range of industries which further contributes to its higher price.

Iron has a higher density than aluminum
Aluminium weighs less and it doesn't rust. It's about as hard as iron, too.
Steel was more rust resistent and more durable.
