This was one of the easiest Connections puzzles I've played in a while. The 
whole thing only took me a couple of minutes, and I think I would even have 
solved the most difficult purple group if I'd have needed to (I didn't). 

I didn't solve them in order; the blue 'energy' group stood out immediately 
to me, followed by the green 'exertion' and then the yellow 'effortless'. All 
very straightforward.

PERIODIC, POOL, WATER What is NYT Connections? 

NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the 
New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four items that share 
something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green 
is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite tough and purple usually 
very difficult. 

On the plus side, you don't technically need to solve the final one, as 
you'll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What's more, 
you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing 
room. 

It's a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there 
are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For 
instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise 
the answers. 

It's playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
