"Ahem! Chief Shan, this room is a little messy, don't mind! But there are everything that should be here! Take a look! This is the beaker you mentioned in the "Chemistry" textbook, and this is the measuring cylinder. This is...."
In a room in the office building of the workshop, Wang Ji introduced the experimental equipment in the room to Li Zexuan in detail. In fact, Li Zexuan knew better than anyone else where he needed to introduce it!
If you pay careful attention to Wang Ji's tone, you can find that when he talks about things related to "Chemistry", his attitude towards Li Zexuan becomes respectful, because in the field of knowledge, the master is always the teacher! Li Zexuan is better than him in this aspect, that's a fact!
"Yeah! Very good! It can be seen that Mr. Wang has really put a lot of effort in recent days!"
Li Zexuan scanned the experimental equipment in the room, nodded in admiration.
When Wang Ji heard this, he immediately grinned, "Hey! In the final analysis, it is Shanzhang who built this workshop well! Without the help of those craftsmen, no matter how capable the old man is, he would not be able to build it in such a short time. So many things!”
What he said is indeed correct. In terms of credit here, Li Zexuan must have made the greatest contribution. If he had not invented the method of firing colored glaze, Wang Ji would not have been able to build any of the experimental instruments in front of him!
"Haha! Mr. Wang is too modest!"
Li Zexuan laughed and then asked: "Mr. Wang, have you been living in this house these days?"
Because he saw a very simple wooden bed in the opposite corner. Li Zexuan felt a little sad when he thought that this old guy who was nearly fifty years old was doing experiments day and night in front of him in this cold weather!
The treatment of "scientific workers" should not be like this!
But this is really Wang Ji's consistent style of life!
When Yanhuang Academy was first established and the first batch of teachers were recruited, Wang Ji spent every day in order to win the bet with Yan Silu and prove that he was worthy of the academy's "high salary" and the position of subject leader of the Chemistry Department. Ye, studied the "Chemistry" textbook crazily for nearly a month, and finally won the bet with full marks and proved his strength! As a result, after the exam, the old guy fell asleep all day and night!
It can be seen that this is a stubborn old man, but also a very powerful old man!
This old man is so cruel to himself sometimes!
"Uh! It doesn't matter. As long as there is a place to lie down, it doesn't matter where you sleep! Chief, you don't have to worry about me!"
At this moment, Wang Ji just wanted to show Li Zexuan his research results and had no time to care about his own living situation.
Li Zexuan said flatly: "No! The body is the revolution... The body is the capital of learning! Mr. Wang, you are like this now. In a few days, you will definitely get sick! I will ask Uncle Fu to send someone to this room for you soon. The house is also heated!”
"Heating? What is heating?"
Wang Ji, who only saw various chemical equations in his eyes, obviously didn't realize that the workshop had recently produced several sets of heating equipment, so he asked doubtfully.
"Let's not talk about this for now. Mr. Wang, you will understand it when it is installed!"
Li Zexuan waved his hand and then got to the point: "Mr. Wang, just outside you said that you had recently discovered something new. What is it that makes you so happy~?"
Wang Ji immediately became energetic. He quickly came to the experimental table and took out a small glass bottle with a label on it. There was half a bottle of colorless liquid in it. Then he took the glass bottle away with a smile. Arriving in front of Li Zexuan, he said: "Shan Chief, this is it!"
"What is this..."
Li Zexuan took it suspiciously with one hand and asked subconsciously, but before he finished asking, he had already seen the H2SO4 label on the bottle, and the confusion on his face suddenly turned into surprise: "Sulfur... sulfuric acid?"
Wang Ji nodded proudly, stroking his beard and said, "Yes! That's right! It's sulfuric acid!"
Old Man Wang had painstakingly studied the "Chemistry" textbook. Li Zexuan was not surprised at all why the old man could name sulfuric acid, but now Wang Ji actually swore that he had created sulfuric acid, which made Li Zexuan very unbelievable, " Mr. Wang, how did you create sulfuric acid?"
The basis of the modern chemical industry is "three acids and two alkali". It can be said that without "three acids and two alkali", there would be no modern chemical industry! Sulfuric acid is one of the important members of the "three acids and two bases". If Wang Ji really created sulfuric acid, that would be really awesome!
(The "three acids" are sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, and nitric acid, and the "two bases" are sodium hydroxide and sodium carbonate)
Wang Ji took out a small box from the drawer and a small paper package from the wooden box. When the paper package was opened, a small amount of green powdery substance was revealed. At this time, Wang Ji smiled and said:
"Shan Zhang, this is it! I put green vitriol on a flame and heated it, and found that it would produce a gas, and this gas can be dissolved well in water. After I used chemical equations to calculate, this solution is very Maybe it’s sulfuric acid!”
Green vitriol! !
Isn't this a hydrated crystal of ferrous sulfate?
Li Zexuan was stunned and suddenly remembered that according to the chemistry book in his previous life, dilute sulfuric acid could indeed be produced in small amounts by burning green vitriol. The chemical equation: 2FeSO4·7H2O=(high temperature)Fe2O3+SO2+SO3+14H2O, sulfur trioxide When dissolved in water, it becomes dilute sulfuric acid. But where did Wang Ji get the green vitriol?
"Mr. Wang..."
With doubts in his heart, Li Zexuan just wanted to ask Wang Ji where he got the green vitriol? Suddenly, the memory of his previous life in his mind made him realize again. It turned out that green vitriol was a kind of traditional Chinese medicine in ancient times. Wang Ji must have gotten it from Sun Simiao!
Both "Tang Materia Medica" and "Compendium of Materia Medica" have records of the medicinal use of green vitriol, which can treat typhoid fever, malaria and other diseases.
"Haha, Chief Shan, your guess is correct! This green vitriol is exactly what I borrowed from Divine Doctor Sun!"
Wang Ji seemed to have read through Li Zexuan's thoughts and said with a smile.
As for the "borrowing" in his mouth, it must be something borrowed but never repaid! Sun Simiao realized after a while that he would probably have to trouble Wang Ji!
"Ha! Mr. Wang is really a genius! He actually thought of using green vitriol to make sulfuric acid. I admire him!"
Li Zexuan said sincerely.
This chemical reaction may not be difficult for a modern person like him, but Wang Ji, an ancient man, could actually produce dilute sulfuric acid by slowly thinking about it on his own. That is really amazing! Creation is much more difficult than innovation at any time!
Wang Ji laughed and said: "Where is it! This is all because your "Chemistry" textbook, Chief Shan, has given me a lot of inspiration! Besides, some of my early experiences have also brought a lot of help!"
