BTW, for those interested, silver's properties are:
-heat capacity: 235 J/kg.K
(energy, in Joules, required to raise a 1 kg block of silver by 1deg C)
-density:10490 kg/m^3
-heat conductivity: 429 W/mK
So to recap:
Aluminium
-heat capacity: 385 J/kg.K
-density: 2702 kg/m^3
-heat conductivity: 237 W/mK
Copper
-heat capacity: 903 J/kg.K
-density: 8933 kg/m^3
-heat conductivity: 401 W/mK
