  • Elok's Chemistry Challenge

    The following ten numbers are equal to the weight, in grams, of a certain amount of ten different elements of the periodic table, not including the rare earths because those punks are snobs. Each number represents a different volume, in milliliters, of the corresponding element in gaseous form, at a pressure equal to a different altitude above sea level on earth (in increments of 250 meters). The number of possible solutions to this problem is ludicrously huge, but I have arbitrarily selected one set of answers as "correct" and will respond with a flat and unhelpful "no" to every set of incorrect answers. I will also yell at you if you do not specify the element, volume, and both pressure and equivalent altitude for each of the ten answers. Have fun!

    BTW, pressures are to be given in PSI (ie, either in pounds per square inch, or by SMAC-style telepathy, preferably both). Thank you.

                ...yes, there are supposed to be ten values listed. I don't think you understand this game.

                              Well, if I left out the value in grams it wouldn't technically be any more open-ended and impossible to guess the "right" answer, but it would have been exceedingly difficult to make a game out of it. Please explain yourself.
