Is aluminum foil cut in half a physical or chemical change?
It is a physical change because it can be reversed. All you have to do is weld the foil back together!
What is the difference between tin foil and aluminum foil?
Aluminum and tin are two different elements. They have different physical and chemical properties. Tin is element 50. Aluminum is element 13. Tin is denser and has a lower melting point than aluminum. Tin can reach 2+ and 4+ oxidation states while aluminum can only achieve the 3+ oxidation state.

Why is aluminum a pure substance?
Only a single component makes up aluminum foil, which is the aluminum element. Hence, aluminum foil is considered as a pure substance.
Is aluminum foil homogeneous or heterogeneous?
aluminum foil is made of one element, aluminum. All elements are pure substanes, so that means they are homogenous. compounds are also homogeneous. mixtures are heterogeneous or homogeneous, depends if they are mixed up or the same thoughout (like air, like solutions, or like steel (melted iron and carbon frozen into a solid solution).
