A two-dimensional surface with only one side. Created usually by cutting out a long strip of paper, twisting it in the middle, then connecting the ends.

Razzle was incorrect. He did not win the award for chemistry. He won the award for working out the cycle of photosynthesis. Chucker has taken the lead by one point!

Fantomeye: 1
Alphakiller: 2
Chucker: 6
Todd: 5
AJK: 3

Next Question:

Which element of the periodic table reacts with the water vapor in the air?
-Worth 3 points

That is quite a hard one, but if no one can get it I will offer some hints. And Fantomeye, you can't answer, because I've already told you this one

Rust is actually a chemical reaction between oxygen AND water vapour. We're talking about water vapour alone here.

And mercury reacts with oxygen, not water. Could be sodium, sulphur, chlorine or nitrogen, but it's probably something else.
