Known as Zn, zinc is on the periodic table and is an element. It is in the group 12 on the table and has similarities to magnesium. Its atomic number is 30. It appears silver to gray in color. Elements can combine to make other elements or things. If you were to melt aluminum and it was heated with zinc oxide, it would produce a metal that was zinc.

Aluminum is known as Al on the periodic table and its atomic number is 13. It is part of the boron group and is silver to white in color. It has a low density and is considered to be a post-transition metal. It will melt at over one thousand degrees Fahrenheit.
