Chapter 330: The Blowout of Science
This is the latest research discovery by a folk chemist from Eight Dragons.
This chemist, a former chemistry teacher in high school, has been working on chemistry research since his retirement, and this time he participated in the Kyushu Science and Technology Award, and this time he participated in the application for the Kyushu Science and Technology Award, and he discovered this latest metal.
A metal that has never been discovered.
He named the metal uranium.
Ge Qingping read the text of the paper:
"The thermal neutron absorption cross section is 7.60b, there are 15 isotopes, and their atomic weights range from 227-240. All isotopes are unstable and weakly radioactive, which is uranium. ”
Everyone gasped: "Radioactive? ”
“……”
According to the operation of the paper, everyone separated the most basic uranium from the asphalt, which was named uranium dioxide by the chemist named Jiang Ke.
Of course, before osmium was discovered, it did deserve to be the heaviest metal.
There is no way to prepare successfully on the spot, which requires a strict periodicity. But everyone is a professional, and after a certain level of progress, you can basically determine the likelihood of success.
The most important thing is that the paper is accompanied by the 'uranium' prepared by Jiang Ke in advance
Everyone weighed it in their hands, and their eyes shone brightly, it was indeed heavy, very heavy.
Weighing with the same volume of uranium together with other metals, the quality of uranium far exceeds that of other metals.
According to the paper, uranium metal was obtained by reducing it with potassium.
Looking at this porcelain cyan metal object, everyone couldn't help frowning, and after a while, Chi Flame Wang gasped:
"It's changing color."
Ge Qingping's eyes also widened suddenly: "Is this oxidation in the air?" ”
"It oxidizes so quickly."
"What does this say......"
The paper also says that it is radioactive. After research and observation, its radioactivity decays. ”
"These things can't be verified and observed in a short period of time. But the paper says that highly pulverized uranium metal powder is extremely flammable and explosive, and burns on contact with air. ”
It is also said that uranium metal will also burn when it passes through high temperatures in the air. Verify it. ”
“……”
There are constantly new discoveries, and each discovery announces that the scientific fields of various disciplines have taken a big step forward neatly.
Everyone was so excited that they couldn't help themselves.
It is better to be happy alone than to be happy in all, this is simply a proverb.
In the past, when there was only the Kyushu Academy of Sciences, the feeling of everyone was lonely, lonely, and the height was unbearable.
But now, when everyone's thinking has been transformed by the Kyushu Academy of Sciences, many basic knowledge has been learned, and gifted people have begun to grow.
Not without genius before. And it's just because geniuses are imprisoned by their minds that they don't dare to take such a step forward.
The Kyushu Academy of Sciences cultivated their minds, and all of them had the courage to take that step. And at this time, the gold of genius will begin to shine from the pile of sand.
In all corners of the world, there are amazing discoveries. Science, until this moment begins, is the real take-off.
It is only now that the various disciplines are truly on the right path.

The verification, evaluation, and screening of papers are in full swing.
Laoshan County, on the other hand, is overcrowded.
Scientists from different countries, different regions, and different nationalities, or lovers of science gather here.
The entire Laoshan County is overcrowded and extremely lively. It's the world's top spectacle.
No one, no organization, has ever attracted the world's top scientists to Laoshan with such great charm. Attend the world's top science summit.
The scientists of the Yamato Kingdom are here, and so are the scientists of the Rakshasa Kingdom.
Now the troops have been dispatched.
The troops of New Kyushu have entered the Rakshasa country, and the troops of the Yamato country are also being deployed.
But the war could not affect this atmosphere of science.
Here, no one sneers at a particular person because of the existence of war.
Because the concept of the Kyushu Science and Technology Award is - the world is the same.
There is no way to be the same in ethnicity, so in science, there are no national borders.
Professor Imura of Yamato Province is leading students to participate in the Kyushu Science and Technology Award for the second time. Even if the Yamato country has been divided, there are rumors of it, those who should flee will flee, and those who should defend will die.
But this did not affect this group of scientists in Yamato.
"Professor Imura, your discovery will definitely be nominated for the award this year."
"Professor Imura, don't worry, you didn't have time to sign up last year, and this year you came to Shin-Kyushu a month early. Be sure to have your name on it. ”
Imura shook his head and sighed, "It's out of touch with the times, and it's not something that hard work can make up for. Even Qin Enze, the god of science in Yamato, is no longer capable of winning the physics prize. ”
"It can't be. Qin Sang used to be the president of the Kyushu Academy of Sciences and the Mobile Academy. How could he not even win a physics prize? ”
"Even if you don't win the physics prize, it's no problem to get a nomination award."
“……”
Imura sighed: "Qin Sang has developed a two-stroke fuel engine. We are like gods. But do you know that the Institute of Mobility of the Kyushu Academy of Sciences has now used four-stroke fuel engines. The core power of the airship is provided by the four-stroke engine. ”
"Four-strokes?"
"What is a four-stroke and what's the difference between a two-stroke?"
"It's a big difference."
Imura added, "As far as I know, the Mobile Institute has already begun to work on the star engine. As for what a star engine is, I don't have the slightest idea. But the difficulty is far above the four-stroke engine. Qin Sang...... Also outdated. ”
There was silence.
Even Qin Enze, the top physicist that Yamato Province dug up at great cost, is outdated, so how much progress has the Kyushu Academy of Sciences made?
Yamato Kuni was only just beginning experiments, equipping a two-stroke engine on a paraglider, which was connected to a flatbed. Do two-stroke powered gliders.
And the Kyushu Academy of Sciences, power paragliding has become a tool for the entertainment of the rich. What they are developing is a flying machine that can soar tens of thousands of meters in the air and go thousands of miles in an instant.
They thought that maybe the star engine would win the physics prize this year. Or an airship.
But they didn't know that at this time, in fact, even airships were not included in the nomination award at all.
The prototype of the star engine has been successful, and the star engine is just enough to be nominated for the award.
It changes every year.
Last year's Kyushu Science and Technology Award was already so golden.
And this year, it's been turned upside down again. Explosive growth in geometric multiples.
The gold content has shocked the world. They couldn't imagine that there were so many scientific truths in this world. There are so many unheard-of new discoveries, new inventions......
The era of scientific blowouts has arrived.
