Material Testing Center, Wang Hui Laboratory.
Wang Hao, Xiang Qiansheng, He Yi and Teacher Zhao were waiting at the door. They were eager to know the test results immediately, and they kept talking about the issue of 'red copper'.
"Are you sure the color of the copper has changed?" Wang Hao asked again.
Xiang Qiansheng and He Yi nodded together.
Xiang Qiansheng said, "We all saw it, and several other people also saw it. The color is obviously red. Look at the photo again..."
He took out the photo again.
The other three people all came over to take a closer look.
"This is a red metal. Among simple metals, only copper has a red color. The red in this picture is too strong."
"But, it shouldn't be..."
Wang Hao wondered, "Copper is an element with specific reactions. It is not gold or silver. Even if it upgrades, it will not all upgrade together. The first-order copper we first discovered has an extremely weak content. It’s less than 0.1%.”
He Yi pointed to the picture and said, "But this is definitely not normal."
"It is clear."
"It depends on the test results." Xiang Qiansheng said, "The question is, why does this happen? Is it really that the copper has been upgraded?"
"If it's an upgrade, what does it mean?"
The change of copper was indeed a surprising discovery. Their experiments had not found that all elements had been upgraded, and as a result, copper changed again.
This change is different from the gold element.
The gold element initially turned into 'brown gold', which was only a semi-upgraded state, and the basic physical properties did not change.
After completing the upgrade, it was confirmed that it was a first-level gold.
Now that the first-level copper is available, the changes that have occurred again, whether it is 'half-upgraded' or 'upgraded', can be prefixed with 'second-level'.
This is where the surprise comes.
They subconsciously felt that all the elements had been upgraded, and there would be a blank value in the middle, and then it would be possible to discover the 'second-order elements'.
The strength of the annihilation force field at that time may have exceeded 100 times, and it could not be completed in a short time. It may not be possible in the next few decades or hundreds of years.
The discovery of ‘suspected second-order elements’ now really shocked everyone.
He Yi then asked Wang Hao, "If it is really second-order copper, what does it mean?"
Wang Hao frowned and thought for a while, then said seriously, "If it is second-order copper, first of all, it means that the upgrading of different elements is an isolated problem and has no correlation with other elements."
"In other words, the upgrading of different elements needs to be studied separately, and there will be no rules for the strength of the annihilation force field required for the upgrading of elements."
"On this basis, an element may have multiple ways to upgrade. For example, we found that an element can be upgraded in ten-magnification force field strength. If a special environment is created, such as high heat, high pressure, etc., maybe 8 The magnification can also be upgraded..."
He Yi and Xiang Qiansheng were immediately confused.
Teacher Zhao also became interested, and he immediately asked, "This is very interesting, Academician Wang, please tell me more carefully, can the strength of the force field environment change when the elements are upgraded?"
"The current discovery may be proof of that."
Wang Haodao, "We all know that the main manifestation of the upgrading of elements is the change of the outer electron orbit, which is fundamentally the change of the atomic nucleus. The outer electron orbit must adapt to the change of the atomic nucleus until it enters a new stable state.
"
As he spoke, he glanced at Teacher Zhao and gave a very simple example, "For example, a number, 10, can be split into 3, 4, 3, or 2, 2, 6, etc.
Divided into 1, 2, 7, there are many ways to split it. As long as one of them is achieved, it is a stable state."
"Unstable, that is, no promotion has occurred. It can be understood as splitting into 1.5, 1.5, and 7. It can be noted that the first two numbers are decimals, so they are not steady state."
Everyone else nodded in understanding.
Wang Hao continued, "If we expand the time to tens or tens of billions of years, from the perspective of tens of billions of years ago, the first-order elements we define are definitely not first-order. In the process, it may have happened many times.
The change."
"At the same time, because element upgrading is an isolated problem, the 'orders' of different elements are also different."
"For example, the conventional copper element may be of the fifth or sixth order, and the conventional iron element may be of the tenth order or higher. Of course, this is just an example."
"That said, do you understand?"
"Our current definition of regular elements is zero order, but the definition is based on the annihilation force field environment of the current universe."
"From the perspective of the past, the order of the current zero-order elements may not be the same."
"That creates a problem."
"For example, we discovered the first-order cobalt element at around 21 magnification. But maybe the cobalt element also experienced an upgrading at 18 magnification, but we didn't do the experiment at that magnification and directly discovered the 'second-order'
of cobalt and treat it as first order.”
"So, we need to re-examine the experiment of low-magnification annihilation force field..."
Xiang Qiansheng and He Yi thought about it and they both understood.
Several people behaved very seriously.
Teacher Zhao felt that the atmosphere was a bit depressing and couldn't help but ask, "Academician Wang, is this a good thing or a bad thing for us?"
"Of course it's a good thing."
Wang Hao's expression suddenly changed from seriousness to joy, "The experiment has made new discoveries, and they are very important. This means that we will have more discoveries!"
Xiang Qiansheng and He Yi also expressed their expectations.
Teacher Zhao took a long breath. He just saw that several people were very serious and thought there might be a huge problem, but it turned out that they were just discussing experiments.
Anyway, as long as it’s good news!
…
Wang Hao and others waited for nearly an hour.
Wang Hui knew that several people were waiting outside, so he could only reluctantly hand over the work to Zhou Qing, and walked out of the experimental room with a small piece of pure red metal sample.
When he saw Wang Hao and others, Wang Hui immediately said excitedly, "Look at this!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! He showed the pure red metal in the glassware. This small piece of pure red metal was much darker than the red material sent.
A group of people looked over.
He Yi immediately said, "Red copper, we all know it, is it second-grade copper?"
"Not pure yet."
Wang Hui made a rough comment, then nodded and said, "We have determined that it is second-order copper!"
"really!"
"Very good!"
"It's really second-order copper!"
Several people couldn't help shouting excitedly.
Wang Hui continued, "I was really shocked when the materials were first delivered. When we melted and solidified the materials, we found that the volume was much smaller and the density increased."
"Up to this point, it has actually been proven that it is second-order copper."
"So Zhou Qing and I purified it together and found that the content is about 30%. Now the content of this piece exceeds 90%. If you want to make further profits, you need to update the precise operation."
"Now we can confirm that this red copper is indeed second-order copper..."
After Wang Hui finished speaking, he sighed, "If the purity exceeds 99%, I believe its color may be like blood!"
Others looked at it with admiration.
The color of 'second-order copper' is pure red, just like blood. It may be regarded as a priceless treasure when taken out.
Wang Hui continued, "We roughly measured the resistance and found that the resistivity has also decreased a lot, but the details are not clear and more detailed measurements are needed."
He Yi immediately said, "If the resistivity of second-order copper can catch up with first-order silver, it can replace first-order silver."
After saying this, everyone felt strange.
Now that Annihilation Technology has prepared for batch manufacturing of first-order silver, what is delaying time is evaluating the safety of the equipment, adding some facilities and equipment to ensure safety, and automating the manufacturing process. The result...
Is Tier 1 Silver going to be replaced?
To be continued...
