If the aluminum has iron attached to it it will be picked up by the magnet otherwise it will remain on the ground.

What happens if you put copper metal into a solution of aluminum sulfate?
Nothing will happen. Displacement reaction only happens when the element is more reactive than the salt solution. An example will be the otherwise. If you put aluminum metal into a solution of Copper (II) Sulfate. The aluminum metal will displace copper metal and you will have a solution of Aluminum Sulfate and copper metal. As long the element you put into the salt solution is more reactive than the cation of the solution, it will displace the metal.
What type of metal is found in aluminum foil?
Aluminum
Which is more metallic aluminum or silicon?
Aluminum, of course. Silicon is a metalloid while Aluminum is a metal.
What is a scrap yard magnet?
It is a magnet which moves metal around the scrap yard. Scientific explanation = It s a big round magnet which is actually an electromagnet. This allows the magnet to be turned on then off. When turned on the electromagnet attracts any magnetic substances. This is why most cars are made of something magnetic! You can move this electromagnet around because it is a crane you pick stuff up move it and then drop it by turning the electromagnet off!
Can a magnet be used to separate small pieces of metal from a mixture of metal?
For example ferrous metals (Fe, Co, Ni) can be separated from other metals with an (electro)magnet.

How does a scrap heap electromagnet work?
An electromagnet can be used a couple of ways. It can be used on the end of a crane, to pick up large pieces of metal to be moved into shredders, or restacked for transportation, crushing, etc. It can also be used to separate metal from non-metal pieces. Usually, these types of magnets are on a conveyor belt, and will cull metal from, say, plastics or other non-ferrous metals such as copper, and aluminum.
What happens to two pieces of metal if they touch in space?
When two pieces of metal touch in space, they become PERMANENTLY stuck together. This happens because of the lack of gravity in space
