This is the latest research discovery by a folk chemist from Balongcheng.
This chemist was once a high school chemistry teacher and has been devoted to chemical research since his retirement. This time he participated in the Kyushu Science and Technology Award and discovered this latest metal.
A metal that has never been discovered.
He named this metal - uranium.
Ge Qingping read the text in the paper:
"The thermal neutron absorption cross-section is 7.60b, and there are 15 isotopes with atomic weights ranging from 227-240. All isotopes are unstable and have weak radioactivity. This is uranium."
Everyone gasped: "Radioactive?"
“…”
According to the operation of the paper, we separated the most basic uranium from asphalt, which was named uranium dioxide by the chemist named Jiang Ke.
Of course, until osmium was discovered, it was indeed the heaviest metal.
There is no way to prepare successfully on the spot, which requires a strict periodicity. But we are all professionals, and after completing the steps to a certain extent, we can basically determine the possibility of success.
The most important thing is that the paper comes with the 'uranium' prepared by Jiang Ke in advance.
Everyone weighed it in their hands, their eyes shining brightly, it was indeed heavy, very heavy.
When the same volume of uranium is weighed together with other metals, the mass of uranium far exceeds that of other metals.
According to the paper, potassium was used for reduction and uranium metal was obtained.
Looking at this porcelain-green metal object, everyone couldn't help but frown. After a moment, Chi Lie Huowang took a breath of air:
"It's changing color."
Ge Qingping's eyes suddenly widened: "Is this oxidation in the air?"
"It oxidized so quickly."
"This shows what… "
"The paper also says that it contains radioactivity. After research and observation, its radioactivity will attenuate."
"These things cannot be verified or observed in a short period of time. But the paper says that highly pulverized uranium metal powder is extremely flammable and explosive and will burn when in contact with air."
"It is also said that uranium metal will burn after being exposed to high temperatures in the air. Verify it."
“…”
New discoveries are constantly being made, and every discovery announces that the scientific fields of various disciplines have taken a big step forward.
Everyone was so excited that they couldn't help themselves.
Happiness alone is not as good as happiness among everyone. This is simply a motto.
In the past, when there was only the Kyushu Academy of Sciences, everyone felt lonely, lonely, and cold at high places.
But now, after everyone's thinking has been transformed by the Kyushu Academy of Sciences, they have learned a lot of basic knowledge, and talented people have begun to grow.
It’s not like there weren’t geniuses before. But it's just because geniuses are imprisoned by their thoughts and don't dare to take that step forward.
Kyushu Academy of Sciences cultivated their thoughts, and everyone had the courage to take that step forward. At this time, the gold of genius will begin to shine from the pile of sand.
Amazing discoveries are constantly being made in every corner of the world. Science, until this moment, has truly taken off.
It is only now that all disciplines have truly embarked on the right path.
——
The verification, evaluation, and screening of papers are in full swing.
Laoshan County is overcrowded.
Scientists or science enthusiasts from different countries, regions, and nationalities gather here.
The entire Laoshan County was overcrowded and extremely lively. This is a world-class event.
No one or any organization can have such great charm to attract the world's top scientists to Laoshan. Participate in the world's top science summit.
The scientists from the Yamato Kingdom are here, and the scientists from the Rakshasa Kingdom are also here.
Troops have been sent out now.
The soldiers of New Kyushu have already invaded the Rakshasa Kingdom, and the troops of Yamato Kingdom are also being deployed.
But the war could not affect this scientific atmosphere.
Here, no one cynically criticizes someone because of the existence of war.
Because the concept of Jiuzhou Science and Technology Award is - World Harmony.
If there is no way to achieve unity among nations, then in science, there is no distinction between national boundaries.
This is the second time Professor Imura from Yamato has led students to participate in the Kyushu Science and Technology Award. Even though the Yamato Kingdom has been divided internally, and there is a turmoil, those who should flee should flee, and those who should defend must hold on.
But this did not affect this group of Yamato scientists.
"Professor Imura, your discovery will definitely be included in the nomination award this year."
"Don't worry, Professor Imura. Last year you didn't have time to register. This year you came to New Kyushu one month early. Your name must be there."
Imura shook his head and sighed: "We are out of touch with the times. This cannot be made up for by hard work. Even Qin Enze, the god of science in Yamato, is no longer able to win the physics prize."
"This is impossible. Qin Sang was once the dean of the Kyushu Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Motor Vehicles. How could he not even win the physics prize?"
"Even if you don't win the physics prize, there is no problem in getting the nomination award."
“…”
Imura sighed: "Qin Sang developed a two-stroke fuel engine. We respect it like a god. But do you know that the Motor Vehicle Institute of the Kyushu Academy of Sciences has now used a four-stroke fuel engine. The core power of the airship is a four-stroke The engine provides it.”
"Four-stroke?"
“What is a four-stroke, and how is it different from a two-stroke?”
"The difference is huge."
Imura added: "As far as I know, the Institute of Motor Vehicles has begun to study radial engines. As for what a radial engine is, I have no idea at all. But the difficulty is far higher than that of a four-stroke engine. Qin Qin Sang…is also behind the times.”
Everyone was silent for a while.
Even Qin Enze, the top physicist who was poached by Yamato at a huge cost, has fallen behind. So, how much progress has the Kyushu Academy of Science made
Yamato has just started experimenting, equipping a two-stroke engine on a paraglider, and connecting the paraglider to a flatbed. Make a two-stroke powered glider.
As for the Kyushu Academy of Sciences, powered paragliding has become a recreational tool for the rich. What they are developing is an aircraft that can soar to an altitude of tens of thousands of meters and cover thousands of miles in the blink of an eye.
They thought that maybe the star engine would win the physics prize this year. Or an airship.
But they don't know that at this time, even airships are not even ranked among the nominations.
The prototype of the radial engine has been successful. Even so, the radial engine has just qualified to enter the nomination award.
It changes every year.
Last year's Jiuzhou Science and Technology Award was already so valuable.
But this year, everything has turned upside down again. Explosive growth in geometric multiples.
The gold content has shocked the world. They could not imagine that there were so many scientific truths in the world. There are so many unheard of new discoveries, new inventions…
The era of scientific explosion has arrived.
