Selenium C# - I'm unable to find an element on this page using any of the locators

This was just a random script I made to complete a quiz but I can't seem to access the final element. I want to select the element, click the element and then send some text to the element.

I have tried to access the input box by class name, CssSelector and by XPath.

The website is https://www.16personalities.com/free-personality-test

Here are the XPaths I have tried:

//*[contains(@class, 'email-wrapper')]
//div[contains(@placeholder, '[email protected]')]
//div[@class="row request-info-wrapper"]
//*[@id='request - email']"

An image to make things clearer :)

Any help is greatly appreciated as I'm new to the framework and would very much like to know what I'm not understanding about locators! Thank you!

EDIT:

I can't seem to target this element or any of its children:

Your field has a (presently) unique ID of "request-email".

Thus you can simply use, as a CSS selector, 

('#request-email')

Then, in you can simply tell Selenium to hit ENTER to save your data. Let me know if you need help doing that.

You have selected wrong tag DIV.Try this following Xpath. All should work.

"//input[@id='request-email']"

Or

"//input[@name='email']"

Or

"//input[@placeholder='[email protected]']"
