As given that the

a) temperature is same for both the metals

b) the volume of both the cubes is same (Same dimension)

The metals are sodium and calcium

Sodium has atomic number = 11

the electronic configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1

It will attain noble gas configuration by easily losing one electron only

calcium has atomic number = 20

the electronic configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2

It will attain noble gas configuration by donating two electrons so calcium is less reactive than sodium

hence the difference in the rate of reaction is most closely associated with the different nature of the metals

In an experiment, what is the purpose of the control group?
Burka [1]

A control group is the comparison group that helps to "make sure your experiment works." A control group is separated from the rest of the experiment and nothing happens to it kinda like a controlled variable.  Controlled variables are the variables in a experiment that remains the same for example a temperature, time, type of products, etc..

Hope this helps!

How many molecules of sugar (C6H1206) are in a mole?
Tanzania [10]
By definition, one mole (one gram molecular weight) of any substance, contains Avogadro’s number of particles; atoms if you are discussing an element, or molecules if a compound. Avogadro’s number has been determined by several methods, all of the accepted values lie within a range of +-1% about the value of 6.022045 x 10^23/gm. That is a large number, in this case approximately; 602,204,500,000,000,000,000,000 molecules of glucose.
