Tips:

  • No column headers.
  • Each line maps to a question.
  • If the delimiter is used in a question, the question should be surrounded by double quotes: "My, question","My, answer"
  • The first answer in the multiple choice question must be the correct answer.

A student hypothesizes that sodium (Na) has different chemical properties than magnesium (Mg). Why would they think that?
Sodium and magnesium have different numbers of valence electrons.  They are in different groups
Valence Electrons determie the __________________ .
