QUESTION 01 of 05

In 1789 Antoine Lavoisier published a list of "simple substances" that he believed could not be broken down further. This list included oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, phosphorus, mercury, zinc, and sulfur; which formed the basis for the modern list of elements. Which element in Lavoisier's list is a liquid under normal conditions?

Sulfur (S)Atomic #16

Zinc (Zn)Atomic #30

Mercury (Hg)Atomic #80
