I send out the final answer next week prior to the holiday break. And this one is going to be tough as the element is very well know: The Question: This element forms a variety of organometallic compounds which see substantial commercial importance: a reducing agent in organic synthesis, an anticaries additive in toothpaste and a ceramic pigment). This is a low melting point alloy. The boiling point of this element is 2632C. What element is this? The winner of the week's quiz will get to put Clumpy to work for a week. 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, Benchmark Electronics Inc. - Solderability testing and mowed the lawn Week 4 Ian Fox, Goodrich - had an epic journey of travel Week 4 Gary Ferrari, Garrick Global - ????
