The table below contains data with reference to four common metals.

\begin{array} {|l|c|c|c|c|}
\hline \text{Metal} & \ce{Al} & \ce{Zn} & \ce{Sn} & \ce{Pb} \\
\hline \text{Z} & 13 & 30 & 50 & 82\\
\hline \text{A} & 26.98 & 65.38 & 118.7 & 207.2 \\
\hline \text{Melting point } (^{\circ}\text{C}) & 660 & 420 & 232 & 327 \\
\hline \text{Boiling point } (^{\circ}\text{C}) & 2470 & 907 & 2602 & 1749 \\
\hline
\end{array}

Which element remains a liquid over the greatest temperature range?

  1. \(\ce{Al}\)
  2. \(\ce{Zn}\)
  3. \(\ce{Sn}\)
  4. \(\ce{Pb} \)

\(C\)

Show Worked Solution
  • Range \(=\) Boiling point \(-\) Melting point

\(\ce{Al}: \ 2470-660= 1810^{\circ}\text{C}\)

\(\ce{Zn}: \ 907-420= 487^{\circ}\text{C}\)

\(\ce{Sn}: \ 2602-232= 2370^{\circ}\text{C}\)

\(\ce{Pb}: \ 1749-327= 1422^{\circ}\text{C}\)

\(\Rightarrow C\)
