@stevenmorookian16 Yeah i know, do for some people saying that tin "rusts" is well simpler, but im just wondering since back in the middle ages knight armour used to be dipped in tin after completion for "rust proofing" (i know the correct term is oxidizing"

@Trillios Nope lead and tin both oxidizes, but the word rust is used to describe iron oxide.

how quickly will tin oxidize?

Aluminium is the correct pronunciation.
American industries changed the pronunciation to Aluminum because it was ''hard to say aluminium" (yeah thats how stupid american's are, they remove letters from words because they are ... too hard to say otherwise ...)
Just because the USA says/does it doesn't mean its correct.
Perhaps you need to learn how to speak the language yourself?

Apperantly there was a god in Etruscan mythology called Tinia, which was/is the equivalent to Jupiter in Roman mythology, and probably became a shared idol with Jupiter during the Etruscan monarchy in Rome. The two mythologies probably have a shared history in general as well. Since some elements are named after old gods (like Thorium) I assume Tin got its name from Tinia, hence the shared symbol and association with Jupiter :)
