An alkali metal, halogen or noble gas
Our answer book holds 19 answers to “An alkali metal, halogen or noble gas”, from the first thing anyone would say to names almost nobody would think of. Most people go straight for Helium, Sodium or Chlorine, so those barely lift the rocket. It is a fairly short list, so there are not many places left to hide from the crowd.
The odd entry you read about once tends to score far better than the classroom example. You will find it in stage 40, “Periodic Table Party”, of the Science mission. The first stages of every mission are free, and later stages come with the full mission.
