How many elements' chemical symbol does not correspond with their name?
There are no elements whose symbol does not match their name -- in some language! The elements known to the ancients all match their latin names: Pb = plumbum = lead. Sn = stannum = tin. Cu = cuprum = copper. Au = aurum = gold Ag = argentum = silver Hg = hydrargyrum = mercury A few more recently discovered elements also match their latin names: Na = natrium = sodium K = kalium = potassium -- actually this name originally derives from the Arabic "al kali" -- recognize it? Sb = stibium = antimony One element has a symbol that matches its German name: W = Wolfram = tungsten I guess that makes about 10 elements whose symbol does not match their English name.
