When an experimenter draws a conclusion that he assumes will apply to all situations set up similarly to his test situation, even though he cannot possibly have examined all possible test scenarios, the experimenter is using deductive reasoning inductive reasoning abductive reasoning subjective reasoning

answer: the rate of diffusion increases with increase in temperature.

increase in temperature, increases the molecular/particles speed (kinetic energy. diffusion means movement of particles through the material.

generally, the heavier the particle the more it interacts with the environment and more the temperature matters. so higher temperature results in higher diffusion.

answer:

technetium is the most reactive. this is followed by silver. the least reactive out of these three elements is strontium.
