- Aluminium has good strength to weight ratio so can's can be made thinner (saving money as less material is used) yet still have the required strength.
- Aluminium has a very low density, it is a light metal.
- Aluminium is sufficiently resistant to corrosion.
- Aluminium is cheaper.
- Aluminium is 100 % recyclable.

Was pop cans in the 70's made out of steel or aluminum?
more then likely steel, aluminum cans are fairly new when compared to steel cans. aluminum is now used in canning of pop and is very thin i think a few microns is the side wall thickness
How do you separate aluminum cans from iron cans?
Using a magnet you can hover it over the cans.
How do you separate iron and aluminum cans?
To separate iron and aluminum cans, you can use a magnet, as iron is magnetic while aluminum is not. When you pass a magnet over a mixed collection of cans, the iron cans will be attracted to the magnet and can be easily removed. Alternatively, advanced sorting technologies like eddy current separators can also be used, which exploit the different conductive properties of metals to efficiently separate aluminum from iron.
How many aluminum cans are produced every minute?
350,000 every minute.
What term is used to describe the reuse of aluuminum in old soda cans to make new products?
The term used to describe the reuse of aluminum in old soda cans to make new products is "recycling." This process involves collecting, processing, and repurposing aluminum, which can be transformed into new cans or other aluminum products, significantly reducing the need for new raw materials and minimizing environmental impact. Recycling aluminum is highly efficient, as it requires only about 5% of the energy needed to produce new aluminum from bauxite ore.
What can be made from recycled aluminum cans?
More aluminum cans!!!
Is an aluminum can a compound?
No aluminum cans are not compounds. Aluminum cans are made of aluminum which is an element and is very metallic.
Is an Aluminum a compound?

Is a can magnetic?
Some are some aren't. If they are made of steel as some juice cans and a few other beverage cans are they will be. If they are made of aluminum as almost all beverage cans are they will not be.
What is a can made of?
Normally cans(soup cans, soda cans, etc.) are made of aluminum.
Is aluminum cans an compound?
No aluminum cans are not compounds. Aluminum cans are made of aluminum which is an element and is very metallic.
Why are cans made of iron can be separated easily from aluminum cans?
The cans containing iron are magnetic, the aluminum ones aren't.
Is a aluminum Can a pure substance?
Aluminum cans are made from pure aluminum.
What are soda cans made of?
Aluminum
Are aluminum cans compounds or elements?
Scientifically speaking, they are a mixture. The aluminum that is visible and is exposed to the air has oxidized and created a very small layer of Aluminum Oxide (Al2O3).
Are soda cans made out tin?
No... They are made out of aluminum
How magnets are used to sort steel and aluminum cans?
the aluminum cans don't attract and and steel attracts because its is made of iron and aluminum is not.
