Chapter 164: Questioning
Why did Master Jiayi's paper come to us? Are you going to give up thermodynamics and switch to the elemental school?"
The mage who had just introduced Jia Yi said, his tone was a little ridiculous, but he did not refuse the paper handed over by Jia Yi.
Belena took the paper from Queenie's hand and said, "Gibos, don't underestimate Master Jiayi, the law of conservation of energy is completely qualified to be submitted to your journal "Elements", and when the time comes, don't look at the good writing of other people's papers and beg him to submit them to your journal." ”
Gibos didn't speak, Jiayi's level of thermodynamics was impressive, and thermodynamics was not unrelated to the elemental school, although Jiayi was not specialized in elementalism, he didn't dare to despise him.
At this time, the knowledge of mages is very extensive, especially the elemental school, they claim that the elements are the foundation of the world, and they have a very wide range of knowledge, and most of the mages will study some of the content of the other schools in addition to specialization, but most of them will not be particularly in-depth. This is also the disadvantage of most elemental schools, which are more extensive and less specialized.
However, if Jiayi's thesis is substandard, the mages present will not hesitate to ridicule, who made him so young, and it seems that he has Magni as a backer, for young and seemingly deep mages, everyone will be extra harsh.
While handing the paper to the rest of the mages, Jia Yi said: "For the time being, I am still preparing to study thermodynamics in depth, and the current heat can only be regarded as lifting the skirt of the goddess, and there is still a lot to be done, and I also have some specific ideas. Elementology is just a bit of a bypass in research, so I'm here to ask you about it. ”
The number of mages present was not too many, and the paper was quickly distributed, and everyone saw the specific content of the paper.
It's just that as the paper deepened, many mages frowned.
"The periodic table is also about the periodic law. ”
"Bellena, this is a continuation of your heritage, I remember that you should have summarized a periodic law of the three primes before. ”
"This is supposed to be inherited from Newlands' study, which is somewhat similar to his octatonic rhythm. ”
Roughly speaking, Jiayi's periodic table does seem to be eight or multiples of eight for periods, but if you count carefully, you will find that this is not the case, but compared with the three-element group, it is indeed more similar to the eight-tone rhythm.
"The eight-tone rhythm, this one is indeed a bit similar, but this one should be a nine-tone scale, but this table doesn't look beautiful and asymmetrical. And why are there so many pieces in the middle? I want to draw an element myself and fill it in. ”
Kaichi stood beside Magni, not yet seated, and said, "It's not a void here, it's that I expected an element to be here, and it should be similar in nature to the elemental above them. ”
"It's... You are so confident in the periodic laws that you have summarized that you even predict new elements. Regardless of how your rules are summarized, there seems to be no magic element in this, do you think that magic elements are not elements?"
As soon as this mage's words came out, the rest of the mages who were still whispering stopped and looked at Kaichi, and even Magni was ready to hear what Kaichi had to say.
She didn't ask Kaichi this question when she came, she thought that Kaichi only arranged the basic elements and ignored the magic elements, which was nothing special, and that the magic elements were also eliminated when Master Newlands divided the octagram periodic table. Because of the difficulty of purifying the magic element, the measurement of atomic weight is always inaccurate, and the measurement value of different mages is always different, and even the same mage can measure different things at different times, and because of the influence of magic power, the nature is very special.
In many cases, mages will remove the magic element before researching it, which is much easier.
It was already difficult for this mage to ask this question, but everyone was curious about how Jia Yi would answer, although he said that everyone could accept it if he only studied the basic elements, but he couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
Kaichi pondered the language for a moment and said, "I haven't studied this too deeply, just a rough idea, I think that there are varieties of elements with different relative atomic masses but the same chemical properties and different physical properties, and these varieties should be in the same position on the periodic table, I call them isotopes." The magic element is an isotope of the ordinary element, but because of the affinity of the magic element, it contains the magic element, resulting in a big difference in its properties from the ordinary element. ”
The magical elements in his mouth are not the same, the front refers to a specific substance, and the latter refers to a kind of energy. Although he mixed it, everyone understood it.
"If, if you can completely remove the magic factor in the magic metal, you can really know the basic element corresponding to this kind of magic element. In my opinion, atoms are not indivisible, but rather composed of more basic particles, one of which is even concentrated in the number of particles that cause the elements to exhibit different properties. ”
He has no way of proving it at the moment, and can only put forward it with a conjecture.
"Is there anything you can prove if you're speculating?" asked Gibbos.
They weren't too surprised by the idea that atoms could be divided, it wasn't a new one, but no one could prove it yet.
Kaichi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "In fact, there is no way to prove these theories, so I didn't mention them in the paper, everything is still conjecture." However, I still think that the magic element already exists in the periodic table, but because the atomic weight measurement of the magic element is more difficult, it is not possible to determine which element it should belong to, and because of the existence of isotopes, the atomic weight measurement of many substances is not accurate, and more accurate measurements are needed to remove the influence of isotopes. ”
"So, is it because the atom is measured inaccurately due to the influence of isotopes, or even because there are elements that have not been discovered? Your periodic table, though it seems more complete and bolder than the previous ones, is so flawed that it is impossible for this paper to pass the scrutiny of the Supreme Council unless there is more conclusive evidence. ”
Gibbs does not agree with Jiayi's theory, and it is always difficult to convince others of simple conjectures, even if Jiayi's periodic table seems much more reasonable, there are more uncertainties in it.
Perhaps because he was brought by Magni, everyone's tone was quite mild.
When Newlands first proposed the theory of octatonic periods, he was ridiculed for why they were not sorted alphabetically. Jiayi is only questioned now, and it is much better that he is not ridiculed.
"The key is to find a new element, if the new element exists in the position inferred from the periodic table, then it can be relatively proved that my theory is correct, if it does not conform to the inference, then the periodic table needs to be improved," said Kaichi. ”
Everyone agrees with Jiayi's statement, and in the paper he and Queenie re-determined the atomic weight of gold, which gives his paper a higher credibility, but no one dares to say that his periodic table is correct until a new element is found.
Gibos said to Jiayi: "Master Jiayi, your periodic table is indeed very creative, but it lacks conclusive arguments, and you need to wait for others to verify several elements such as the gold element that you have redetermined, I am afraid that it will not be published in the Elements." ”
"It doesn't matter, as a big journal is rigorous, I am ready to submit to other journals, I hope that more people can see it, I hope that someone can find that new element. There are several blanks in the periodic table, but I think the most likely ones to find are aluminum-like and silicon-like, which are below aluminum and silicon in the periodic table, and have similar properties to aluminum and silicon. Among them, the atomic weight of aluminum-like should be about 69, and the density is 5.9~6.0..."
Kaichi spoke softly about his reasoning, expecting Giboth's refusal.
Jiayi's influence is there, but it has not yet reached the point where people are blind in the field of the elements, and if it was Magni, Gibos would definitely be willing to publish it in "The Elements" regardless of what the other party wrote, even if it was just a poem.
Gibault thought for a moment, perhaps to save face for Magni, and said, "After your paper is published, I will ask the editor to cite it in Elemental, although it is only an inference, but if you really find the element you predicted, it will undoubtedly be a major discovery for the Elemental School." ”
