francium , in the Periodic table the atomic radius increases from top to bottom in a group, and decreases from left to right across a period. making helium is the smallest element, and francium the largest.
Solid and liquid particles
Answer:
Protons, electrons, same in that order is the answer.
Explanation:
this has to do with the periodic table information.
When a substance absorbs thermal energy, it partitions some as potential and some as kinetic energy. Specific heat is an expression related to the quantity of heat a substance stores as potential energy; the remainder is absorbed as kinetic which causes the temperature to increase - recall that temperature is a measure of average kinetic energy.
When specific heat is low, most of the energy is partitioned as kinetic energy and the substance will experience the greatest temperature change.
So rather than calculating the change in temperature, we can simply inspect the specific heats. The one with the lowest will experience the greatest temperature change. We could also compare the specific heats: Al = .897/.385 ==> 2.3, Fe = .452/.385 = 1.2, Cu = .385/.385 = 1. We can expect Copper's temperature change to be 2.3 times larger than Aluminum's and 1.2 times larger than Iron's.
