2 Facts

2.1 Interesting Facts

Plutonium metal if obtain from ores of uranium metal.
Plutonium metal is very sensitive to the change in atmospheric conditions like temperature and pressure.

Aluminum’s abundance percentage is more as it is found in more than 260 minerals.

Pure Aluminum always reacts with oxygen rapidly.

It is a good conductor of heat and electricity and used in transmission lines.
