Answer 1

In the fourth row of the periodic table, the chemical symbols that do not match their element names are:

• K (Potassium) - correct
• Ca (Calcium) - correct
• Sc (Scandium) - correct
• Ti (Titanium) - correct
• V (Vanadium) - correct
• Cr (Chromium) - correct
• Mn (Manganese) - correct
• Fe (Iron) - not matching (symbol Fe, name Iron)
• Co (Cobalt) - correct
• Ni (Nickel) - correct
• Cu (Copper) - not matching (symbol Cu, name Copper)
• Zn (Zinc) - correct
• Ga (Gallium) - correct
• Ge (Germanium) - correct
• As (Arsenic) - correct
• Se (Selenium) - correct
• Br (Bromine) - correct
