Fill in the blank with the correct answer. Sami suggested replacing the copper wire used in the socket with an aluminum wire. He first wants to find the drift speed of the electrons inside the aluminum wire. The wire is connected to a socket where the current flows through it has a magnitude of 12 A. The wire has a radius of 4.0 mm and a density of 3 2.7 g/cm The drift speed of an electron inside the aluminum wire is m/s if each atom is given only one conduction electron. The molar mass of the aluminum is 27 g/mol. Avogadro's number is equal to 23 6.0 X 10 mol <-1
