To clean an aluminum hull with white powder spots, often caused by oxidation, start by rinsing the surface with fresh water to remove any loose debris. Use a mild aluminum cleaner or a solution of vinegar and water to gently scrub the affected areas with a soft cloth or non-abrasive scrub pad. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water and dry the hull to prevent further oxidation. For heavy oxidation, consider using a specialized aluminum polish or a commercial cleaner designed for marine use.
When aluminum metal is burnt in air, it forms aluminum oxide (Al2O3), a white powdery substance.
If you get enough of a dosage, yes it is. Buddy Ebsen was originally signed to play the Tin Man in The Wizard of Oz, but the aluminum powder he was covered with poisoned him, and he had to be hospitalized.
No, aluminum chlorate is a solid compound. It is a white crystalline powder that is typically used in fireworks and pyrotechnic applications.
white perhaps
No, Aluminum is not mined at all. Aluminum is not a naturally occuring metal, and is made from processing bauxite into a white powder called alumina, which is then melted and has electricity passed thru it, making aluminum. Bauxite is the third most abundant substance in the Earth's crust, and is mostly strip mined.
oxidation of the aluminum surface
Sand the spots down to shiny metal using fine sandpaper.
I am lead to believe that white powder spots are a sign of rust on Aluminum hulls.
oxidation of the aluminum
Aluminum oxide - Al2O3.

No, I was wondering the same thing as I took my boating exam, but after further research I believe the answer is that white powder spots are a sign of oxidation on aluminum hulls. But if you are taking the exam, you can always pick an answer, and when you check to see what you missed, look at the information about aluminum hulls or whatever.

It makes white colored stars. Its' also an ingredient in flash powder.
