Question

Each element has a symbol on the periodic table. Match the element to its symbol. Some elements were discovered by the Romans and have Latin names. This means that sometimes we will say the element in English, but the symbol will reflect the original Latin name. I highlighted these elements during lecture. Consult your list of elements to find these outliers. Good luck on this matching quiz. You have three attempts. I will keep your high score.
