Solution
The two special characteristics of aluminium are:
- Extreme Lightness Combined with Strength: It possesses a remarkably low density, making it extremely lightweight, but it also has incredible strength when alloyed with other metals.
- High Resistance to Corrosion: It naturally forms a protective oxide coating on its surface, preventing rusting and degradation, making it extremely durable even in harsh environments.
