1.	Why is it possible to store nitric acid in alluminium containers?
Answer» $\huge\red{\underline{{\boxed{\textbf{ANSWER}}}}}$ ★ This is because Al readily reacts with oxygen of AIR and form really stable aluminum oxide LAYER on it. This layer is so stable that it does not allow any further REACTION of aluminum. Hence it is safe to transport nitric ACID in an aluminum container.
