Using the clue and image, identify the element and its
symbol. Remember that chemistry is the study of matter.
46 of the elements are included in this exercise.
PERIODIC TABLE OF THE ELEMENTS
Element
Quiz
The lowest density gas. By far the
Hydrogen most common element in the sun and
universe.
An inert gas used in balloons (also
what a doctor tries to do to patients).
Helium
Compounds of this light member of the alkali metals
are used to treat some types of mental disorders.
 Lithium
Compounds of this first
member of the alkaline earth
metals are extremely toxic.
Beryllium
Compounds of this group 3A (or 13)
element are important in cleaners (also
what one termite might say to another).
Boron 
Organic chemistry is the chemistry of compounds of
this element. It occurs as diamond and graphite.
Carbon 
Non-metal which is 78% of air (also what one
trogen says to another on the way to bed).
Nitrogen
In liquid state
This non-metal necessary for animal life is the second
most abundant element in the atmosphere (21%) and the
most abundant in the earth's crust.
Oxygen 
Liquid form paramagnetism
Compounds of this gaseous halogen
are used as additives in toothpastes
and in some water supplies.
Fluorine 
Inert gas used in colored display lights.
Neon
Alkali metal whose ion is blamed for high
blood pressure. Reacts violently with water.
Sodium
+ water
This alkaline earth metal is used in fireworks
and flash bulbs and is present in chlorophyll.
 Magnesium
This low density metal is used extensively
in foil, kitchen utensils and wiring.
Aluminum 
The second most abundant element in the earth's crust
is used in semiconductors (also a joker in jail).
Silicon 
This non-metal is part of the DNA
polymer chain and is used in matches.
Phosphorus 
Allotropes of this element
This nonmetal is used in the vulcanization
of natural rubber and as a fungicide.
Sulfur 
This gaseous halogen is used in bleach,
pools and for water purification.
Chlorine 
This inert gas is the third most abundant gas in the
atmosphere. abcdefghijklmnopqstuvwxyz
The r is missing or gone.
Argon 
Discharge tube
Compounds of this alkali metal are sometimes used by people
on low sodium diets. Reacts violently (see below )with water.
Potassium
+ water
Compounds of this alkaline earth metal make
up limestone, chalk, teeth and bones.
Calcium
This transition metal is as strong as steel, 45% less dense
and maintains properties with temperature changes and
although in abundance on earth, is expensive to refine.
 Titanium
This transition metal is used as a
coating on water taps and bumpers
because of its luster but many of its
compounds are carcinogenic.
 Chromium
This transition metal is used in many
important alloys including steel.
 Manganese
This transition metal is the
main element in steel (also a
really pressing thing).
Iron 
This is the transition metal present in Vitamin B12
(also what happens to men as they grow old).
Cobalt 
Transition metal whose ion has a green color.
Also $0.05.
Nickel 
This transition metal is
used for electrical wiring.
Copper 
Transition metal used in many alloys such as brass and
to galvanize steel (also where you pour stale milk).
Zinc 
A metalloid used extensively in
semiconductor materials. Its
name sounds a little like a flower.
Germanium
This toxic member of the nitrogen family
is used in the manufacture of pesticides.
Arsenic
This halogen is the only liquid non-metal.

Bromine
This is the lightest element that does not have
any stable isotopes. One of its isotopes is used
extensively for medical diagnoses.
Technetium 
This brilliant white metal is an excellent electrical
conductor and used in jewelry and tooth fillings.
Silver 
This member of the carbon family has
predominantly metallic properties and is used
to coat steel in cans for preserving food.
Tin 
This toxic solid halogen
is used as an antiseptic.
Iodine 
subliming
A heavy alkaline earth element. Despite the toxicity of its
salts, one of the salts (sulfate) is used in the "milk shakes"
taken by a patient for a gastrointestinal series of X-rays (also
what happens to patients when the doctor fails).

Barium
This rare earth element is used to make
the strongest permanent magnets.
Neodymium
This transition metal is used for
incandescent light bulb filaments.
 Tungsten
This silvery white, fairly inert, rare transition metal
is used in jewelry and for electrical contacts (also
what you might like to do to a big meanie).
Platinum 
This transition metal has often
been used as the base for
monetary systems and is used
in jewelry.
Gold
The only liquid metal. Used for
thermostats and to make amalgams for
items such as tooth fillings (also a
Greek streeker who wore shoes with
wings). Unfortunately very toxic.
Mercury
This metal is used in the manufacture
of storage batteries and X-ray shields.
Lead 
The heaviest nonradioactive element.

Bismuth
This alkaline earth metal is radioactive and has been used on
watch and clock hands (also what police do to wild parties).

Radium
This radioactive element is used in nuclear
reactors and weapons but the most abundant
isotope (99.3%) does not undergo fission.
Uranium 
This transuranium element although detected recently
on earth must be synthesized from U-238. It is used in
nuclear weapons and reactors and is extremely toxic.
Plutonium 

CHEMISTRY MATTERS!
While this quiz is over, it is hoped that you will try to learn more about the
elements and the periodic table. Although some students perceive that the main
goal of testing is for grading, the primary goal of testing is actually to provide a
learning experience. Hopefully, you have learned from this experience.
Remember that chemistry is everything that matters (including love)!
