Industrially it's quite simple - steel cans are magnetic while aluminum cans aren't.
Aluminum and tin are two different elements. They have different physical and chemical properties. Tin is element 50. Aluminum is element 13. Tin is denser and has a lower melting point than aluminum. Tin can reach 2+ and 4+ oxidation states while aluminum can only achieve the 3+ oxidation state.
You can conserve energy by building a solar energy unit using aluminum cans.
Aluminium, iron (steel), zinc. Early tin cans were soldered closed - so that includes lead as an answer. this is not a good answer
No but it is made of aluminum which is the most prevalent element in the earth.
Aluminum. Tin cans are actually made of aluminum because tin is too maleable.
You can use a large magnet. Aluminum isn't magnetic, but steel is... Try that out. You should write A for Aluminum and S for steel on the cans so you don't get mixed up.

Aluminium and steel cans can be separated using a magnet, as steel is magnetic while aluminium is not. By running a magnet over a pile of cans, the steel cans will be attracted to the magnet while the aluminium cans will not, allowing for easy separation.
the aluminum cans don't attract and and steel attracts because its is made of iron and aluminum is not.
You can separate aluminum and steel by getting a magnet, and by putting it against the can and seeing if it sticks or not. I f it sticks, its steel. If it doesn't its aluminum. And well... milk jugs and soda bottles, you can clearly tell that soda bottles are bottles with soda in it, and milk jugs are jugs with milk in it.
It depends on the can. Soup cans might contain steel. Soda cans are made of aluminum.
The steel cans will be attracted.
Using a magnet you can hover it over the cans.
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
Aluminum cans are very easy to separate - they are large enough to see and simply pick them out of the trash and put them into a separate bag or bin.
Steel cans can be removed from rubbish using magnets because steel is a ferrous metal that is magnetic, while aluminum is not magnetic. The magnets attract the steel cans, allowing them to be separated from other materials in the rubbish.
