I was WAY stumped until I realized the category was science...This site is the reason why my old college textbooks aren't dusty! Challenging teaser!
Okay, this is for smart people, not people like me!
I figured it was elements, but I couldn't figure out which ones! And congrats on getting this teaser in the Duke University Talent Identification Program newsletter!!
I did learn about Metalloids, something I was unaware of earlier. According to Wikipedia, the known metalloids are: Boron, Silicon, Germanium, Arsenic, Antimony, Tllurium, Polonium.
you're right that is easy... if you're a science teacher or a college student!!!!!
Not really, I'm 12 and I thought it was pretty easy after you unscrambled the letters. Well, maybe that's because I specifically study metalloids. Nice teaser though.
This was easy, yet still fun!
Thank you ^_^
Maybe I only got this because I'm a periodic table NERD and I've studied it since... When? I think 3rd or 4th grade.
Astatine is not a metalloid...it's a halogen
