16 + 53 + 3 + 27 + 7 = 14When does the following equation become true:
16 + 53 + 3 + 27 + 7 = 14 AnswerIt becomes true when the addends are replaced with the chemical symbol of that atomic number...16 = S (Sulfur) 53 = I (Iodine) 3 = Li (Lithium) 27 = Co (Cobalt) 7 = N (Nitrogen) ...and the sum is replaced with the element name, not symbol, that has that atomic number. So the equation would in fact look like this: S + I + Li + Co + N = Silicon Hide What Next?
