Why don't all symbols match the name of an element . give 3 reasons and 3 examples for each reason?

Not all symbols match the names of elements due to historical naming conventions, language variations, and the adoption of Latin or Greek roots. Historical Naming Conventions: Some elements were named after their discoverers or places, leading to differing symbols. Example: Gold (Au) from the Latin "Aurum." Example: Silver (Ag) from the Latin "Argentum." Example: Sodium (Na) from the Latin "Natrium." Language Variations: Element names can differ across languages, impacting their symbols. Example: Potassium (K) from the Latin "Kalium." Example: Iron (Fe) from the Latin "Ferrum." Example: Lead (Pb) from the Latin "Plumbum." Adoption of Greek or Latin Roots: Many elements are derived from ancient languages, leading to non-matching symbols. Example: Mercury (Hg) from the Latin "Hydrargyrum." Example: Tungsten (W) from the Swedish "Wolfram." Example: Antimony (Sb) from the Latin "Stibium."

Why do some elements in the periodic table have symbols that seem unrelated to the element?

Some of the names represent the Latin names for the element. For example, the symbol for lead is pb. The Latin name for lead is Plumbum (lol). Hope this helps :) Just to add on, I think some of them are from other languages. I can't give an example, but I don't think it's only latin.
