Qubit (game show) lustrous metal is the seventy-fourth element on the periodic table?" If the contestant answers incorrectly or passes, the host reads a clue such as: "Its chemical symbol is W, which stands for" Wolfram, "the German name of this element." If the contestant still answers incorrectly or passes, the host reads two choices, such as: "Is it platinum or tungsten?" Tungsten is the correct answer. The other answer is changed if necessary so it is not an answer already tried by the contestant. If the constant still answers incorrectly at this point, a 10-second time penalty is applied. The contestant with
Melting-point apparatus operator of the apparatus records the temperature range starting with the initial phase-change temperature and ending with the completed phase-change temperature. The temperature range that is determined can then be averaged to gain the melting point of the sample being examined. Apparatuses usually have a control panel that allows the starting and final temperatures, as well as the temperature gradient (in units per minute), to be programmed. Some machines have several channels, which permit more than one sample to be tested at a time. The control panel might have buttons that allow the start and end of the melting point
