What is gamma radiation?</h3>
Gamma radiation (gamma rays) refers to the part of the electromagnetic spectrum with the most energy and shortest wavelength. Astrophysicists define gamma radiation as any radiation with an energy above 100 keV. Physicists define gamma radiation as high-energy photons released by nuclear decay.
Using the broader definition of gamma radiation, gamma rays are released by sources including gamma decay, lightning, solar flares, matter-antimatter annihilation, the interaction between cosmic rays and matter, and many astronomical sources. Gamma radiation was discovered by Paul Villard in 1900.
Gamma radiation is used to study the universe, treat gemstones, scan containers, sterilize foods and equipment, diagnose medical conditions, and treat some forms of cancer.

The identity of the metal is copper.
<h3>What is specific heat?</h3>
The amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius.
Using the formula of specific heat
H = mcdT
Where, H = Heat absorbed
m = mass of the metal
c = specific heat capacity of the metal
dT = temperature change
Putting the values in the equation
20 J = 0.0052 Kg × c × ( 40.0°C - 30.0°C)
c = 20 J/0.0052 Kg × ( 40.0°C - 30.0°C)
c = 385 JKg-1°C-1
Thus, the metal is copper.

Ionic bond is characterized by the complete transfer of valence electrons between atoms. In this kind of bond, a metal loses its electron in order to become a cation while the nonmetal accept the electron resulting to an anion.
