When Al is dropped in HNO3 then it's reactivity decreases due to formation of
A. Al2O3
B. AlNO3
C. AlN
D.Al(OH)3
Dear Student,
Nitric acid is a good oxidizing agent.
So, the outer surface of Al, forms the oxide Al2O3, which reduces the reactivity of Al.
Hope this information will clear your doubts about topic.
