"Xiao Xuan, in this book "Chemistry", how true are the things mentioned in it~? Why do I feel a little mysterious when I read it~?"
After the meal, the few people did not disperse, but drank tea and chatted in the main hall. Wang Ji picked up a book on the table next to him, pointed at the book and asked Li Zexuan.
It is worth mentioning that Wang Ji drank so much of the Immortal Drunk at noon. At this moment, his cheeks were just red and he was not drunk. Li Zexuan even admired his ability to drink.
"This "Chemistry", I can guarantee that it is 100% true~! Chemistry is about the study of change. If you just read the book, it will indeed feel a bit mysterious~!"
Li Zexuan laughed when he heard this. He was still very confident about the "Chemistry" course. In his previous life, he had been a chemistry class representative and he was among the best in every exam. In this life, he has abnormal mental power, so he is even more confident. Can't go wrong.
Wang Ji nodded thoughtfully, and after a moment, he asked tentatively: "The layout of this book is really rare in the world. Although I will not have time to read it in full, but I only follow the first half of it, how can I Doesn’t it mean that all substances in this world can transform into each other~?”
Li Zexuan was slightly stunned. He did not expect that Wang Ji, an "old naughty boy", would be interested in "Chemistry". He thought for a while and replied:
"In terms of mutual transformation between elements, Mr. Wang, your statement is indeed correct~! But sometimes we have to consider reality, because many chemical reactions have very strict requirements on external conditions, for example If the temperature or catalyst cannot meet specific conditions, even if two substances are put together, they will not react chemically, let alone complete the mutual transformation between substances~!"
Wang Ji frowned and said in surprise: "This little chemistry actually has so many skills~?"
Li Zexuan smiled and said: "Of course~! Strictly speaking, the content of this course covers everything in the world~! You know, there are thousands of substances in the world, and there will be more chemical reactions between them~! So there are Very knowledgeable~!”
Wang Ji held his chin and thought seriously while listening. After a while, he opened the book, pointed to one of the pages and asked:
"You represent many substances with chemical symbols based on their elemental composition. Of course I don't know whether your expression is right or wrong. Just follow your thinking first. For example, in this chapter, you said that hydrogen can be produced by burning in oxygen. Water, according to what you said before, doesn’t it mean that water can also be converted into hydrogen and oxygen under certain special conditions~?”
Li Zexuan was really surprised now. Wang Ji's thinking and ability to draw inferences from one example are really different from the capable people of this era~! Maybe this person really can...
Thinking of this, Li Zexuan explained seriously: "Sir, you are right. Water can indeed be decomposed into oxygen and hydrogen. If you read this, you can see it in the following chapters~! But now, the boy can also Please tell me seriously~!
The so-called chemical change is the process in which molecules are divided into atoms and atoms are reorganized into new molecules. If you have read the previous chapters, you will definitely have a general understanding of the concepts of molecules and atoms~! Hydrogen molecules and oxygen molecules are both diatomic molecules, but a water molecule is composed of three atoms. In comparison, the chemical properties of hydrogen molecules are very active. It can burn in oxygen and release heat while producing For water with relatively stable chemical properties, you can calculate the ratio of 2 to 1 to 2 based on the number of atoms between the three. During the reaction, the number of atoms is conserved.
Just now you asked how water turns into hydrogen and oxygen, and this guy will also tell you about it~! I said before that when hydrogen burns in oxygen, it releases heat and forms water with relatively stable chemical properties. Now if we want to turn chemically stable water into chemically active hydrogen and oxygen, we also have to pay. A certain amount of energy is required to promote this chemical reaction to proceed normally~! What I want to tell you here is that energy is conserved at any time~! "
Wang Ji was startled. He seemed to have thought of something, and murmured, "Energy is conserved, matter is conserved, and all things grow together~! This little chemistry actually implies the way of heaven~?"
During Wang Ji's life, he was an official and a hermit. In order to obtain spiritual satisfaction, he studied Taoist culture very much, and his thoughts and some of his later works were also deeply influenced by Taoist culture. At this moment, he listened to After Li Zexuan's explanation, he immediately remembered the Taoist theory of the mutual regeneration of all things and the conservation of yin and yang. Wang Ji, who was already very interested in Chemistry, felt that a door to a new world was opening to him. , he wanted to understand this knowledge more and more.
"Then what kind of energy is needed to turn water into hydrogen and oxygen~? Doesn't it need to be heated~? No, no, when we usually boil water, we don't see water turning into hydrogen and oxygen~?"
After feeling secretly for a while, Wang Ji couldn't help but ask.
Li Zexuan was about to explain, but Yan Silu interrupted at this time: "Wang Wugong, you have just watched Qiu for less than an hour, and now you are starting to have ideas~? Don't pretend to understand, in the younger generation It’s a joke in front of us~!”
Li Zexuan chatted with Wang Ji about chemistry, but he, Li Gang, and Mo Huai listened in confusion, had only a half-understanding, and were depressed for a long time. After all, he couldn't help but ask.
"Tsk~!"
Wang Ji curled his lips and sneered: "You can't do Yan Konggui, but that doesn't mean that I, Wang Ji, can't do it either! I've told you a long time ago that I, Wang Ji, am better than you and can learn everything quickly. You don't believe it! "
"Wang Wugong~! You are so loud~! You only know a little bit about it, how can you brag about it~? Do you want to be shameless~?"
How could Yan Silu endure such humiliation? He said angrily.
Wang Ji retorted: "It's superficial~? It's indeed superficial, but it only took me less than an hour to understand it. Does this mean that I learn things faster than you~? Now, you look good Do you dare to say that I, Wang Ji, am not worth my monthly salary of five buckets of wine~?"
Yan Silu was unconvinced and said: "Yanhuang Academy will be the elite academy of the Tang Dynasty in the future. How can we ask a gentleman like you, who only knows a few things, to mislead others~? Not to mention five buckets of wine, in my opinion, it is just one bucket of wine. It’s all too much for you~!”
"Hmph~! I only know the basics now, but that doesn't mean I will still be like this after school starts~! Yan Silu, do you dare to make a bet with Wang~?"
