There might be some merit to seeing if people can remember the first 20 elements of the periodic table... if you don't give them the symbols. With the symbols, it's just a "Periodic Tables by Symbol" quiz that, for no particular reason, limits itself to the first 20. It would seem to make way more sense to just have a random 20 elements quiz.
Please accept Kalium and Natrium for their elements. Also, maybe just accept fluor for fluorine, as a non-native English speaker I know the element but not the English translation.
Thinking about it, a lot of countries do use kalium and natrium as alternative to potassium and sodium (my country included): https://preview.redd.it/kysbe884jci51.jpg?auto=webp&s=19fd6b17fb0fbcd28f8a070c1d3d60d8bb8fc043
and though obsolete, both natrium and kalium also appear in English language dictionaries (checked Merriam-Webster and Collins), so I bet there's some justification to accepting those names too.
I wonder how you can be unliterally 11... But good for you, it won't help you much in later life, apart from on sites likes this and quizes on tv, but atleast you will have (had) a headstart at your chemistry class
There's Hydrogen and Helium and Lithium Beryllium. Boron Carbon everywhere, Nitrogen all through the air and Oxygen so you can breathe, and Fluorine for your pretty teeth. Neon to light up the signs, Sodium for salty times. MAGNESIUM! Aluminum and Silicon. PHOSPHORUS! Sulfur Chlorine and Agron...

easy for me :)
This beats or equals 51.1% of test takers
Ah close for somone that doesn't know much about the periodic table and dman only better than ~51%
No I can't, because I know the first twenty elements of the Periodic Table.
It does rankle and it is used in a lot of quizzes, but I'm just not sure about an appropriate alternative.
POTASSIUM! Calcium...
Thats how I remembered it!
Thank you ASAP science
LITHUANIUM!
