Now that you are logging out the property names, include the property values too. In other words you want to log out 4 lines that include both the property name and value. For example: "population: 14.35e6"

script.js 
var shanghai = {
  population: 14.35e6,
  longitude: '31.2000 N',
  latitude: '121.5000 E',
  country: 'CHN'
};

for (var prop in shanghai)
  console.log(prop, '; ', shanghai['prop']);

}

<script src="script.js"></script>

odzer — good eye! You might consider posting as an answer instead of a comment, so it can receive votes and possibly be chosen as "best answer". If I were a moderator, I'd happily promote it for you.

The opening { in the for loop is missing, if you add it it works. Also, have to remove the quotes around prop in the brackets:

var shanghai = {
  population: 14.35e6,
  longitude: '31.2000 N',
  latitude: '121.5000 E',
  country: 'CHN'
};

for (var prop in shanghai) {
  console.log(prop, ': ', shanghai[prop]);
}
