I would like to start off by saying that:
Energy absorbed by metal = mass of metal x specific heat capacity of metal x change in temperature of the metal
If the same amount of energy is given to all three metals, there would be the highest temperature increase in the metal with the lowest specific heat capacity. Therefore, Silver would be the answer.

What will happen if aluminum is mixed with copper?
If a mixture of the right amount of aluminum and copper is lit on fire at a high enough temperature then it can produce Thermite, which burns at an extremely high temperature.
How much heat energy is required to raise the temperature of 0.365 of copper from 23.0 to 60.0 The specific heat of copper is 0.0920?
How much heat energy is required to raise the temperature of 0.358 of copper from 23.0 to 60.0 ? The specific heat of copper is 0.0920
What is the reaction when aluminum is added to copper sulfate?
The reaction forms aluminum sulfate and frees copper.
Does aluminum or copper conduct the most heat?
copper
What do copper chloride and aluminum form when combined?
copper!
Aluminum has a specific heat capacity more than twice that of copper Place equal masses of aluminum and copper wire in a flame and the one to undergo the fastest increase in temperature will be?
copper
Will concrete brick aluminum or copper take most energy to increase its temperature?
Whichever of them has the lowest specific heat capacity will take the least energy to raise its temperature, and whichever has the highest specific heat capacity will take the most energy.
Which has highest ionization tendency the lead copper zinc or aluminum?
Aluminium has the highest tendency.
What will happen if aluminum is mixed with copper?
If a mixture of the right amount of aluminum and copper is lit on fire at a high enough temperature then it can produce Thermite, which burns at an extremely high temperature.
Is zinc copper potassuim aluminum foil is a gas?
No. Zinc, copper, potassium and aluminum foil are all solids. No metal is a a gas at room temperature.
What types of metal wire could you use to replace a normal fuse wire?
The common metals used in fuse elements are zinc, copper, silver, aluminum, or alloys. Bear in mind that, of them, copper has one of the highest melting points so is only used for specific high temperature fuses. For domestic use the alloy fuse is used.
If the specific heat of aluminum is 0.902 and the specific heat of copper is 0.268 what makes copper a better choice to use for hot water lines in your house?
This means that copper will not absorb the heat from the water as much as the aluminum. Aluminum will "steal" more heat from the water- which you do not want. You need the heat to stay with the water until it serves its purpose.

Of these 4 copper wood silicon aluminum which material would have the highest resistance to the flow of electric current?
silicon
Which conducts elctricity more efficiently copper wire or aluminum?
Copper is a better conductor than aluminum. Silver is even better. I think that at room temperature, gold is best, but superconductors at their critical temperatures are best.
What are two substances that are solids and that are at room temperature?
Plastic, most metals (aluminum, tin, copper, etc.)
Is sterling silver the best heat conductor out of copper sterling silver brass aluminum and silver?
No, sterling silver is an alloy containing copper to make the metal stronger. Thermal (and electrical) conductivity is highest to lowest as follows: Silver, sterling silver, copper, aluminum, then brass. The latter is an alloy of copper and zinc.
