Explain why aluminium resists further corrosion because of its oxide coating. (Chemistry only)

In the subtopic Corrosion and its prevention, this learning objective focuses on explain why aluminium resists further corrosion because of its oxide coating. (Chemistry only). Within Using materials, students should explain this idea in the exact curriculum context rather than as an isolated fact. Approved keywords for this objective include chemistry only, corrosion, and coating. aluminium oxide coating means a protective layer formed on the surface of aluminium that prevents further corrosion. Avoid students often think that aluminium does not corrode at all; instead explain that aluminium does corrode, but the oxide coating that forms protects it from further corrosion. For exam answers, remember that aluminium resists corrosion due to the formation of a protective oxide layer when exposed to air.
