It obviously has something to do with the periodic table but I haven't cracked the riddle yet.

A( ?) could be:
A(32) Age
A(52) Ate
A(58) Ace
A(75) Are

.... like that -- there are a lot of combinations.

I imagine the riddle works out to something like (but not)...

A(32) + (67)LE + (3)E + (102) = (2)

Translating to

Age + Hole + Lie + No = He

Which doesn't make sense but I still think that's the idea behind the riddle unless you can use multiple numbers for like ....

blah+blah+blah = 39, 8, 92 which would spell YOU

That further expands the possibilities.

I'm going to keep working on it to see if I can crack it but I thought this might help get you started.

i was thinking that....

the very last blank is 'No' since that's the only word made of an element that's pretty high... 102


the beginning might be A(N) (Ti)le since 'an' and 'tile' are words...and antile(something) sounds like a negative (No) because of prefix 'anti-'

the sum of the numbers on the left = the rightmost blank (maybe 102)

.... A(16)(16)+(67)LE ? Laughing
