Why does aluminum "leech" into a water bottle, but stainless steel does not?
My professor was saying that using aluminum water bottles will result in a small amount of aluminum ions dispersing into the water. Stainless steel, however, does not have this problem.
Is this true? Why? I'm curious about the chemical/physical differences that would cause these effects.
