Transient heating of a concrete wall. a wall made of concrete 0.305 m thick is insulated on the rear side. the wall at a uniforin temperature of 10°c (283.2 k) is exposed on the front side to a gas at 843°c (1116.2 k). the convection coefficient is 28.4 w/m².k, the thermal diffusivity is 1.74 x 10" mº/h, and the thermal conductivity is 0.935 w/ m k . (a) calculate the time for the temperature at the insulated face to reach 232°c (505.2 k). (b) calculate the temperature at a point 0.152 m below the surface at this same time.

periodic trends is an atom that gets larger as the number of electronic shells increase, the radius of atoms increases as you go down a certain group in the periodic table of elements. in general, the size of an atom will decrease as you move from left to right of a certain period.

catya your not at all which answer i've seen you do this on another question!

ca has a crystalline lattice with positive ions (since it is a metal, metals are positively charged) and electrons flow freely in its structure since the ca atoms have a large nuclear radius so the electrons are not tightly held, therefore the electrons can flow freely since they are not being highly attracted by the nucleus. moreover, one of the properties of metals are that they are conductors of electricity, thus proving ca is the element.
