Question

I can't figure out why i'm wrong on this.

"Identify the following elements."
(below)

Answer 1

\[X _{80}^{202}\]
(Openstudy doesn't have a way for me to put superscripts before the X, so it's just the atomic number and mass number on the other side. Top is mass, bottom is atomic.)

I thought this would be Mercury, but I was wrong.

Answer 2

I put in this as an answer (Again, super/subscripts preceding the chemical symbol)

\[Hg_{80}^{202}\]

What am I not getting? The answer said for it to be formatted as a chemical symbol, what other element could it be with 80 protons?

Answer 3

?

Answer 4

I think you should put it
\[\Large _{80}^{202}Hg\]

Answer 5

I did.

Answer 6

I just can't write it that way with Openstudy due to it only letting me put super/subscripts after. I put that exactly in. One sec.

Answer 7

Try just write 'Hg'

Answer 8

I did that, too, for another part. I'll try it again for this specific one.

Answer 9

Yup, that was correct. I thought the phrase "chemical symbol" meant the whole thing, apparently not. Ty.

Answer 10

The way you written
\[X _{80}^{202}\]
Is atomic symbol
