Solution

Aluminium reacts with steam ( $H_{2} O$ ) and forms Aluminium oxide ( $A l_{2} O_{3}$ ) and Hydrogen ( $H_{2}$ ) gas are the products. The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between $A l$ and steam (water) is as follows.
$\underset{A l u m i n i u m}{2 A l (s)} + \underset{W a t e r}{3 H_{2} O (s t e a m)} \to \underset{A l u m i n i u m o x i d e}{A l_{2} O_{3} (s)} + \underset{H y d r o g e n}{3 H_{2} (g)}$
