A block of aluminum standing in water in case of larger pieces, in case of very fine powder you get a thin film floating on the top - the same as cocoa powder for example. Very fine powders are either hydrophobic or hydrophillic.

Aluminum does not react with water, that is why they use it to hold drinks. A better question would be to ask what happens when sodium reacts with water. It sparks and reacts violently. Pretty cool little show.

Nothing, for about 50 hours.

This study was based on aluminum powder mixed with deionized water.

The reaction with the 20 gram sample was significantly violent

as it forcibly ejected some of the contents with sufficient force to embed it into the box cover.

Aluminium don't react with water at room temperature; at very high temperature aluminium oxide is fomed and hydrogen released.

You get crystals of aluminum oxide, otherwise known as alumina.

Chemical formula: (Al2)(O3).

When aluminum combines with oxygen, aluminum oxide is formed. It has the chemical formula Al2O3 and occurs naturally as corundum.
