While that's a sensible shot at the pattern, it still falls short of my demands.d_leet said:I'll give number one a shot.
4x13 = 20 because.., and I think what the reason you're looking for is because 4+13 = 17 which adding 3 is 20, this is the same pattern as in the other two since 4+5 = 9 which adding another 3 gives 12 and for 4x6, 4+6 gives 10 and adding 3 gives 13 so the pattern is axb = a + b + 3.
3trQN, it's not 52 either. Though it would've been funny if everyone was guessing 20, and I came out and said, "Sorry folks, it's obviously 52!" As for Q10, the answer to that was Fermi (see post #19), not Pauli. Pauli is the answer to Q4.
Astro, Indium is the correct answer. It was named so for the indigo line (bluish-violet) in the absorption spectrum.
And blue LEDs are made from Gallium Nitride (GaN). It's a b!+ch to make, but a beauty to play with!
