Missing explanations, explanations simply repeat the correct answer.

Hello there, thanks for the feedback, but I thought that the correct answer would be enough for a quick fire quiz of Chemistry general knowledge, as I thought detailed explanations are widely available online and do not require a curated overview...

Humble Cobra While that is true, you didn't fulfill the requirements of the contests:
30 questions (at minimum) with explanations for each of them.
So while your quiz is quite cool on its own, it didn't befit the needs of the contests... :I

Humble Cobra This Quiz was fully re-assessed by an independent Judge.

The original verdict was confirmed to be correct.

In addition to the above issues:
Missing explanations. All explanations simply repeat the correct answer. E.g.: #q1, #q2, #q3, #q4, #q5, #q6, #q7, #q8, #q9, #q10, etc.

Much needed, but 31 questions are too less. Try atleast 100 questions.

Hello, happy to hear this! Definitely planning a Version 2 with more questions at some point in the next weekends... Just got swamped at work since the initial submission.

Good quiz, and nice mix of answer options to make sure guessing won't yield much result.

Thank you so much! Glad you liked it. Indeed: the focus was to avoid guessing as much as possible, but also give participants the chance to use a bit of logic in case they get stuck... :)
