(N/A) Mendeleev predicted the existence of several elements that had not been discovered at the time he proposed his periodic table. He named them $Eka-boron$,$Eka-aluminium$,and $Eka-silicon$. Later,these elements were discovered and named as follows:
$1$. $Eka-boron$ was discovered as $Scandium$ $(Sc)$.
$2$. $Eka-aluminium$ was discovered as $Gallium$ $(Ga)$.
$3$. $Eka-silicon$ was discovered as $Germanium$ $(Ge)$.
Therefore,any two of these,such as $Gallium$ and $Germanium$,are correct answers.
