Symbol: Al
Atomic number: 13
Atomic weight: 26.9815
Silvery-white lustrous metallic element of group 3 of the periodic
table.
Highly reactive but protected by a thin transparent layer of the oxide
which quickly forms in air. There are many alloys of aluminum, as well
as
a good number of industrial uses. Makes up 8.1% of the Earth's crust, by
weight. Isolated in 1825 by H.C. Oersted.
