Welcome to It's Elemental - Element Math Game!

Welcome to It's Elemental - Element Math Game! The computer will randomly pick an element and present you with that element's data from the Periodic Table of Elements. Use that information to answer the question that the computer asks about the number of protons, neutrons, electrons or nucleons (particles in the nucleus) that an atom of that element contains. Press the 'Check my answer' button after you have entered your answer.

If you don't know how to calculate the number of protons, neutrons, electrons or nucleons that are in an atom of an element, reading this page may help you.

Would you like to practice only the first 36 elements? Would you like the challenge of having questions with just big atomic numbers? If so, press the 'More options, please!' button and you will be able to select whichever elements you desire!
