Q. What are the advantages and disadvantages of zinc?

A. In its favor, it's only four letters whereas aluminum is 8 letters, or 9 if you're British. The downside is that it's easy to misspell it as zink, maybe because it rhymes with sink. What are the advantages and disadvantages of sinks please? Thanks!
