Bev, Bev, Bev,
Being that they are an essential food group they are staples: therefore
metal. After everything I've taught you I thought you would have picked
up on that.

Dave, Dave, Dave,
That is not a sufficient answer and you know it. :)
Diet Coke and Diet Mt. Dew make up an Essential Food Group.

Hi Bev - as a materials engineer, I think much more black and white -
antimony is a metal where as Diet Coke and Diet Mt. Dew are nonmetals.

RE: [TN] NTC Friday Element Quiz: The Question
Dave and Mike,
Because I am a main group non-metal chemist? :)
Seriously, because any listing of metalloids includes antimony.

HI Bev
I would have guessed Antimony also, but without commentating on that....
I am just curious as to why you said antimony is not a metal. I agree
it's
not a very good metal, but it's usual allotrope is more metallic than
not.
Regards
Mike

Dave,
I will guess antimony, but it is not a metal.

Subject: [TN] NTC Friday Element Quiz: The Question
Hi folks - here is the Friday Element Question:
The Question:
This element has been known since the 5th century B.C. and is believed
to
be first produced as a metal in 1250 A.D. This element is sometimes
added
to Pb plates as a strengthening addition. This element is typically a
by-product from copper, lead and zinc ores rather than being mined for
the
sole purpose of its own recovery. This element was used at one time for
the control of boll weevil damage in cotton crops in Mexico and the
United
States until prohibited due to toxicity/environmental issues. What
element
am I?
The winner of this week's quiz will get to put Clumpy to work at their
facility on a task of their choosing.
So far Clumpy has:
Week 1 Lamar Young, SCS Coatings
- accomplished nothing (drank lots of coffee)
Week 2 Bev Christian, RIM
- conducted REACH material testing
Week 3 Drew Meyer, Bench
- Solderability testing and mowing the lawn
Week 4 Ian Fox, Goodrich
- ???? Ian owes us a description
Week 4 Gary Ferrari, Garrick Global
- ???? Gary owes us a description
Week 5 Fredrick Miller, Astrolab
- ???? Fredrick owes us a description
Good Luck.
