Aluminium and Oxygen.

Aluminium is in many ways a Won
derful substance, albeit in the natural
world most of it IS oXidiZed and turned
to clay Its avidity for oxygen is one
of its most salient characteristics. 1t Is
said that one never sees the metal, dt-
rectly, i'll air. but always and only
through a veil Of superficial oxide
which forms OH its free surface with
marvellous rapidity. 1t is stated that II
q fresh surface Of aluminium be pre-
pared by scraping with a knife the
oxygen Of the air runs in as fast as the
scale is peeled off and keeps close be-
hind the knife blade.
If it were not for this superficial
scale of oxide. which acts as barrier
to further action the metal would burn
up or detia CRATE in air. The large
amount of heat developed by thermit,
a mixture Of powdered aluminium with
oxygen giving substances, bears wit
ness to the activity Of the oxidizing
process when completed Washington
