Which period 3 element would you expect to have the highest eectrical and thermal conductivity

Sodium (Na)

Explanation:

Generally, thermal and electrical conductivity is affected by valence electrons in an atom. These valence electrons carry electric charges (or conduct heat as the case may be) throughout the atom. The fewer the valence electrons, the higher its conductivity - this is as a result of free movement within the atom. The higher the valence electrons, the lesser its conductivity and when the outermost electrons have completely filled the outermost shell, the atom would be an insulator as there won't be carriers of electric charges.

Hence, from the above, sodium would be expected to have the highest electrical and  thermal conductivity because it has just one electron in it's outermost shell

Cu

Atomic mass: 63.546 u

Atomic number: 29

Explanation:

beacuse its used all the time in eletrical componants and houses

explanation: magnetic pole, region at each end of a magnet where the external magnetic field is strongest. the south-seeking pole, or any pole similar to it, is called a south magnetic pole. unlike poles of different magnets attract each other; like poles repel each other.
