10:20 High flat Monday. This time, on Venezuela.
6:37 Is NATO about to cannibalize self?
10:55 The oil curse.
11:00 It was all given to me. In school, HS, never questioned it. Couldn't even if i wanted cause my mind was flowing on the waistline and hair of the chemistry teacher in HS or legs of chemistry teacher in school (yes it was during the mini period). Would have raised lots of eyebrows of my colleagues also. Cause things were complicated enough the way the were.
Everybody says, education, education but then education is 90% lecturing, never encouraging to doubt, never trying to convince and God forbid, never interactive. They just didn't care what was left of what they threw at us (from books, never fully understanding themselves or being too burned out by repeating those things senselessly for so many years). Except maybe for very few teachers, like the electronics teacher in HS. Enough to save some of the days at school.
Protons have one positive charge and electrons a minus one. Protons are held together in nuclei by the strong force, "strongest force in Universe", exposing their combined positive electrostatic charges to the world. Electrons are kept orbiting or better said, clouding around the nucleus by the electrostatic forces between the minuses of electrons and pluses of the photons.
But then you try to combine them into molecules. Let's take for example one molecule with two types of atoms close in size that is also very stable. Al2O3. The humble aluminum oxide, also known as corundum, also known as ruby. A very tough material, ruby.
Same number of protons and electrons before and after the reaction of aluminum and oxygen.
Then let me ask you one question. What holds together the 3x8 protons of oxygen and the 2x13 protons of aluminum after the oxidation reaction (that also releases much energy?) that are naturally repelling each other (by 3 groups of 8 and 2 of 13) being bound by the strong force only inside the 5 nuclei?
Electrons they say. Orbiting electrons which again repel each other while in orbit. How come attraction between protons and electrons is holding protons together which repel each other with the same force are attracting electrons which also repel each other also possessing some kinetic energy (energy levels, remember)?
Ok since the electrons are not pushed aside the nucleus by a centripetal force (used to in the past) then how come they don't fall into the nucleus, being attracted by the protons?
They say quantum physics is not intuitive but this is not even logical.
