12/13. I did that too. I was thinking of oxygen compounds :(. I'm concerned about why don't more people know these things? I'm sure you'd find similar results in many other places around the world. Why? What's happening socially?

I think it's about reading the question and connecting the brain with the concept. I wasn't really thinking about it too much, but I could have read over the question again instead of assuming that I knew what it was asking. That's really what it was for me.
