Why is the frame on a bike made out of alloy and not pure aluminium?
Aluminium alloys are stronger than pure aluminium, which is comparatively soft. Pure aluminium is also considered chemically reactive (thus the layer of aluminium oxide which coats the metal due to oxidation). Pure aluminium hardly exists due to its strong affinity with oxygen in air. In fact, aluminium foils and beverage cans are also alloys of aluminium, with about 92 to 99% of aluminium. So likewise, bike frames are also made of alhminium alloys because of its characteristics of being strong and lightweight.
What element in the periodic table is used to make cans?

Is aluminum in everyday objects?

Why aluminium is suitable for use of making soft drink cans?
Aluminium is suitable for making soft drink cans because it is lightweight, malleable, and has good corrosion resistance. Its ability to be easily shaped into thin sheets allows for efficient manufacturing of cans while providing a barrier against light, oxygen, and moisture to maintain the quality of the beverage. Additionally, aluminium is infinitely recyclable, making it an environmentally friendly choice for packaging.
What element is used to make most planes and soda cans?
