TRIVIA - Chemistry and Elements?

[AviatorTom]

Here's an interesting trivia question about chemistry. It's easy too... the answer is in this question's picture. You can look if you want, or just go from memory.

Trivia: Name the elements on the Periodic Table of the Elements with names of five letters or fewer.

Hint: there are 10 of them.

Iron and Zinc first came to mind. Upon closer look at the table, boron and tin. And duh, gold.

Without looking at other answers, or googling a clearer image of the periodic table, I’m stumped.

Fun question though!!

[thnderskiies]

Argon, Boron, Gold, Iron, Lead, Neon, Radon, Tin, Xenon and Zinc

[AviatorTom]

@thnderskiies Correct! and in alphabetical order too, deserving of a MHO.

[abc3643]

Hmmmm.

Let me think.

Boron (B)
Zinc (Zn)
Iron (Fe)
Tin (Sn)
Lead (Pb)
Gold (Au)

The inert gases...

Argon (Ar)
Neon (Ne)
Radon (Rn)
Xenon (Xe)

@abc3643 Thank you for the symbols and categorization, deserves a MHO.

[NathanDavis]

Blixem, Comet, Cupid, Dancer, Dasher, Dunder, Prancer, Vixen... and Rudolph

[AviatorTom]

@NathanDavis That's only nine. What was Santa's Chief Elf's name? Number 10.

[NathanDavis]

probably Tencer...

[OlderAndWiser]

Iron, gold, zinc, neon, boron, tin, lead, argon, xenon, and radon.

My undergrad minor was in chemistry.

[Cassie88]

Iron, zinc, tin, gold, boron, argon, radon, neon, xenon, and... that's it, I can't think of number ten.

[BCRanger10]

Off the top of my head, I was able to get iron, gold, and zinc. I had to look to find tin and boron.

[Amy10223]

Gold, lead, iron, zinc, plutonium. Just kidding with the plutonium!! Xeon.

[Amy10223]

I think that's Xenon, sorry.

[lightbulb27]

Boron, Iron, Zinc, Gold, neon, argon, tin, lead, radon, ?

[musicbrain5]

Iron, Boron, Zinc, Neon, Argon, Xenon, Radon, Tin, Lead, Gold… I think that’s it.

[musicbrain5]

In university, organic chemistry was my minor.

[exitseven]

Lead , Neon, Argon, Iron, Zinc, Xenon, Radon, Gold, Boron Exiton

[SaoirseS]

Without looking, lead, gold, radon, argon, zinc

I got a headache just looking at that. 😂
