Answer:

<em>Hi Todoroki here!!! </em>

Explanation:

Chlorine has the electron configuration [Ne]3s 2 3p 5, with the seven electrons in the third and outermost shell acting as its valence electrons. Like all halogens, it is thus one electron short of a full octet, and is hence a strong oxidising agent, reacting with many elements in order to complete its outer shell.

Answer:

Copper>Steel>Aluminium

Explanation:

Hello,

Since the heat capacity accounts for the required heat to increase by 1°C, 1 kg of the metal, copper is the one that has the lower heat capacity, it means that it requires the least amount of energy to warm up (increase its temperature), this could be substantiated via the mathematical definition of heat capacity:

$H=mC(T_2-T_1)$
