The laws of the elements?

If the paper on electromagnetic fields, new elements and radioactivity introduced by Reiner was a complete and practical study, then the paper on the laws of elements sounds so attractive.

Because as Reiner said, almost all the high-level mages here have been involved in research in this area. In the eyes of many of them, the laws that can be found among the elements have been thoroughly studied, and it is difficult to make breakthrough innovations. , especially after Mr. Stanion proposed the idea of ​​​​arranging elements according to relative element quality, many mages even believed that this was the final answer.

Therefore, now that Reiner has proposed his thesis on the laws of elements, these high-level mages are not optimistic about it due to their preconceived notions.

Pluto even looked at President Demetrius with questioning eyes, not quite understanding.

"Linard Ingle, before you explain this paper on the laws of elements, I have a less polite question to ask, that is, have you read Mr. Stanion's recent paper on the laws of elements? "

Lord Broly, who was sitting next to Pluto, asked, making Reiner smile and answer.

"Of course, in fact, I think Mr. Stanyen's method of arranging elements according to their relative elemental masses is very close to the essence of the law of elements, and its periodicity is an exquisite idea. My own paper was also published in Stanyen. It was improved based on Your Excellency’s thoughts.”

Broly said nothing, just nodded for Reiner to continue.

"First of all, I think I still want you to have an intuitive understanding of the elements I arranged. Let's take a look at this table."

Reiner signaled to President Demetri, who waved his hand gently and projected the element table arranged by Reiner into the air.

This is an unattractive-looking list, with many positions missing. Although the order after removing the gaps is generally no different from Mr. Stanion's element table, on several elements, the opposite is true. Location.

"It's not pretty at all."

Eagles Field said that the vacancies on this table seemed to tell everyone that there were more unknown elements in the world that had not yet been explored, which made the mages feel entangled in their hearts.

For comparison, Reiner asked for a projection of Lord Stanion's elemental table.

This form looks much neater, with almost no gaps, which is pleasing to the eye.

"First of all, one of my students discovered that the measured value of the 'Berlen' element had a non-negligible error with the accepted value during the process of measuring the relative element mass. She and I then collected the same elements from various places for measurement. It is found that this phenomenon is common in all elements. Through the experiment in the previous paper, we can know that this phenomenon of the same element but different relative element masses, that is, isotopes exist in almost all elements."

Reiner spoke eloquently, as if what he was listening to was not the authorities in the academic world, but just the students of Crescent College who were hungry for knowledge.

He also mentioned several elements and isotopes with similar relative elemental masses. It can be seen that even if the relative elemental masses are similar, different elements still have completely different properties.

"Since there are isotopes, the relative element mass is not the fundamental reason for the difference between elements."

Reiner's words made all the mages think deeply. Indeed, the existence of isotopes causes the same element to have different relative elemental masses. Then there are questions about Mr. Stanion's elemental sorting based on relative elemental masses. At least, there are difficulties. Flaws in interpretation.

"It is precisely because of this that I thought there was a problem with Mr. Stanion's element ordering, and started to optimize it."

He showed some tables, which were data on some elements with lighter relative mass that Reiner obtained after using the electromagnetic array to accelerate.

"My initial paper only relied on the similarity of the properties of elements to arrange them, while leaving gaps. But after learning about the electromagnetic separation array, I conducted a series of experiments. Since I learned that there are electrons inside the elements, electrons flow at the same time. These electrons can be separated out, so I repeatedly bombard the same element with a stream of electrons, trying to separate out all the electrons it contains."

Reiner first pointed to the Hydra element. If the electric charge of the electron is used as the basis, the particle obtained by this element whose relative element mass is approximately equal to 1 is repeatedly bombarded by the electron flow. The ratio of the relative element mass to the charged amount is approximately equal to 1. , which means that the hydra element should contain one electron.

Similarly, the Carbonarian element with a relative element mass of 12 has a mass-to-charge ratio of 2, which means it contains six electrons. Based on this, Reiner did several experiments to select elements with lighter relative element masses. It appears that the amount of electrons they carry is gradually increasing.

"Although such experiments have certain errors, I believe that if more precise instruments are used to test, the same results will be obtained."

Reiner said that his experimental idea was quite ingenious, making the high-level mages nod slightly.

"I define the charged amount of an element as the nuclear charge. From here, it can be deduced that the arrangement of the elements should be based on the nuclear charge. Therefore, I sorted the elements according to the nuclear charge, while leaving There are some vacancies because the nuclear charges of the elements before and after these vacancies are not continuous."

He then showed the new elements discovered by Fina's father and compared them with his own periodic table.

"As you can see, since the nuclear charge of the element 'Clorin' is 17, and the nuclear charge of the element 'Keira' is 19, I infer that there is another element among them, because 'Keira' The elements are extremely reactive, while the 'Clorin' element is relatively inactive, so I think this new element should also be an element with extremely inactive alchemical properties, and from the perspective of form, it should be a gas. Elements discovered by the electromagnetic separation array."

Mages search for the laws of elements not only to classify existing elements, but also to deduce the properties and laws of elements to lay the foundation for finding new elements in the future. And Reiner's periodic table of elements successfully predicted new elements!

This is the elemental order that mages dream of!

"Wait a moment, Mr. Iain Gray."

Pluto's name for Reiner had changed, and he raised a hand to briefly interrupt Reiner's speech.

"If according to your periodic table of elements, there should be another element between the element 'Florin' with a nuclear charge of 9 and the element 'Thordeon' with a nuclear charge of 11, right?"

Hearing Pluto's words, Reiner smiled slightly.

"Yes, Mr. Oakland, there should be an inert element with inactive alchemical properties here. This is also detailed in my paper. This element should be a gas with a relative elemental mass of about 20. At the same time, It also emits colored light when powered on."

Reiner showed the pages where he made the prophecy, then he looked around at the high-level mages and said softly.

"We can find this element right here."

Everyone was in an uproar.
