VErBAl ReAcTiONS are a new form of word scrambles with a chemical
flavor. You don't need to know any science to be able to solve
VErBAl ReAcTiONS puzzles, but the puzzles bear a resemblance to
chemical reactions.EXAMPLE: Es + 2 S + P + Si + 2 O + N __ __ __ __
__ __ __ __ .This VErBAl ReAcTiON is a word scramble consisting of
one Es, two S's, one P, one Si, two O's, and one N. That is, the
word scramble contains the elements Es, S, S, P, Si, O, O, and N.
Unscramble these elements to form an 8-symbol word (that's why
there are 8 blanks in the puzzle).ANSWER: For this puzzle, the
answer is P O S S Es Si O N (possession).These VErBAl ReAcTiONS
resemble chemical reactions in two ways. First, the scrambled
elements appear added together on the left of the reaction with
coefficients (like the number 2 in the puzzle above) telling you
how many of each element the solution contains, and you fill in the
result of the VErBAl ReAcTiON by rearranging the elements and
writing them on the blanks on the right side of the reaction.
Secondly, all of the solutions are chemical words. A chemical word
is a word that can be made using symbols from the periodic table.
For example, the chemical word POSSEsSiON is made using the symbols
for phosphorus (P), oxygen (O), sulfur (S), Einsteinium (Es),
silicon (Si), and nitrogen (N).You don't need to be familiar with
the periodic table to solve these problems; nor do you need to know
any chemistry. You just need to be able to count and unscramble
elements to make words.This 'Hard' volume consists of words with 7
to 8 symbols, which involves familiarity with common 7 to 16 letter
words.A unique feature of this book is that there is a Hints
section at the back separate from the Answers section, for puzzlers
who may be stuck and want to check just the first letter of the
solution.MORE EXAMPLES: (1) S + Ni + Ge + U __ __ __ __ .(2) 2 C +
N + 2 I + P __ __ __ __ __ __ .(3) Ti + C + Cr + P + Y __ __ __ __
__ .(4) 2 C + U + 2 S + Es __ __ __ __ __ __ .You can find the
answers below.Note that this hard volume consists of chemical words
with 7 to 8 symbols. There are also easy and medium puzzles
(available in separate volumes), which consist of shorter chemical
words.ANSWERS: (1) GeNiUS (2) PICNIC (3) CrYPTiC (4) SUCCEsS.
