This image presents a matching exercise. The goal is to correctly pair the chemical symbols (in circles) with their corresponding element names (in rectangles).
I will solve this by identifying each symbol and matching it to its correct name based on standard chemical nomenclature.
---
Step 1: List all the chemical symbols shown in the image.
Looking at the circles, I can identify the following symbols:
- He
- Ca
- O
- N
- Na
- F
- C
- Fe
- Mg
- K
- H
- Ar
- Cl
Step 2: List all the element names provided in the rectangles.
The names are:
- Hydrogen
- Chlorine
- Argon
- Potassium
- Iron
- Calcium
- Oxygen
- Fluorine
- Sodium
- Magnesium
- Helium
- Carbon
- Nitrogen
Step 3: Match each symbol to its correct name.
Based on the periodic table:
-
He = Helium
-
Ca = Calcium
-
O = Oxygen
-
N = Nitrogen
-
Na = Sodium
-
F = Fluorine
-
C = Carbon
-
Fe = Iron
-
Mg = Magnesium
-
K = Potassium
-
H = Hydrogen
-
Ar = Argon
-
Cl = Chlorine

Solution:
Here is the complete list of correct matches:
-
He →
Helium
-
Ca →
Calcium
-
O →
Oxygen
-
N →
Nitrogen
-
Na →
Sodium
-
F →
Fluorine
-
C →
Carbon
-
Fe →
Iron
-
Mg →
Magnesium
-
K →
Potassium
-
H →
Hydrogen
-
Ar →
Argon
-
Cl →
Chlorine
This completes the matching task. All symbols have been correctly paired with their corresponding element names.
