Aluminium dissolves in mineral acids and aqueous alkalies and thus shows amphoteric character. A piece of aluminium foil is treated with diluted hydrochloric acid or dilute sodium hydroxide solution in a test tube and on bringing a buring matchstick near the mouth of the test tube, a pop sound indicates the volution of hydrogen gas. The same activity when performed with concentrated nitric acid, reaction doesn't proceed. Explain the reason.
