I am having difficulty putting the right amount of each individual chemical element into the lab burner.I know from entering the man's house originally that above each door (as you came in) there were signs at the top of the door.There were four in all.One represented Jupiter,One represented Venus,One represented Saturn,One represented Mars,.I keep studying the formula for the chemicals and how much is supposed to added to the beaker. I think it must be from these four elements I have mentioned earlier.I assumed you use the one spoon for each of these and then squared you would use the 25 spoon one.However,I have tried that.It did not work. I tried it in many many different numerical combinations and none of them worked.Please give me a hint. Thank you,.

Hello I'm sorry.I fail to understand this. The four numerical sums are simple to calculate. 34 15 65 175 However the pictures do not seem to bear any relation to the elements within the equation. Sun yes (simple) From what is a picture of a mountain (or a large rock formation I made the assumption-moon I "assumed" what appeared to be the next picture [fire] would be Mars,The "Fiery Planet" Nope that was wrong I then took it to mean Mercury Nope wrong again. What planet does the fire represent? Ok,I did not forget the original sequence of caricatures posted on the doors when I first went into the man's house-They were Jupiter,Venus,Saturn,Mars However I have never seen Jupiter,Venus,Saturn OR Mars ever represented by a picture of the Sun.Ok getting back-Lastly a Lighthouse looking over the Ocean.Well Perhaps Neptune?....God of the Sea? N-O-T. I despise puzzles that try to "trick" people.Can someone please help me? <img border="0" alt=" " title="" src="graemlins/cry.gif" /> <img border="0" alt=" " title="" src="graemlins/woozy.gif" /> This is driving me up the wall

Michael, if you want the exact solution, check below: SPOILER * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 15 for earth or Jupiter or black powder, 65 for fire or Mars or red powder, 34 for air or Saturn or blue powder and 175 for water or Venus or green powder.
