Chapter 59

A young apprentice!

And very handsome! !

all the mages present looked at Lena with mixed feelings.

Some people marvel at each other's young appearance, others feel uneasy about the excellence of their peers, and some open-minded female mages are interested in this handsome young man at this time. After the meeting, they will try to invite him to spend the night together.

But before that, everyone was more concerned about another question: what did the apprentice discover?

The dim weather outside the window contrasts with the flickering lights in the conference hall. At the junction of the shadows, Lena walks forward step by step.

To tell you the truth, Lena pretended to be calm. He didn't expect that his thesis would be circulated to the legendary mage, and he didn't expect that the other side would attach so much importance to it. Lena walked slowly to the platform, and the legendary mage extended his hand to him, and Lena gently held it back.

"Your paper on electrolysis of water is really wonderful. Maybe it's the best paper I've seen in the past ten years."

Lanchester whispered, with a kind smile.

"I'm flattered, Mr. stanian. I'm just standing on the shoulders of giants to get such a small achievement."

Lena took a look at Cornwall standing behind Lanchester. He did not start to design the electrolytic water experiment until he saw Cornwall's Electrolysis paper. There was nothing wrong with this sentence.

"It's very modest."

Lanchester looked at Lena admiringly, then stepped back and left the huge platform to Lena.

Lena cleared his throat and found that Lanchester had kindly put a copy of his paper on the platform. This copy was obviously Lanchester's own use, and it was already full of various annotations.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the content of my paper is very simple. It is about two new elements found in electrolyzed water."

As soon as this sentence was uttered, all the mages in the audience fell down.

Electrolyzed water!!?

If it wasn't for Lanchester's words before, I'm afraid most people would think that Lena is crazy. After all, water is one of the four basic elements. Lena's words are undoubtedly challenging the authority.

But no one raised any objection. As Lanchester said, all the mages here are at the forefront of mercury balance. Their thirst for knowledge has surpassed everything. They will not rashly insist on their own opinions. At least, they will not raise questions until the end of Lennar's speech.

"I read Mr. penzans' paper on electrolysis in the latest issue of alchemy. It was mentioned in the paper that electrolysis can effectively separate the active elements from the compounds. So I began to think about whether some substances that were considered to be insoluble in the past could not be decomposed because the elements that made up these substances were too active?"

Rather than rush to state his experiment, Lena first asked questions to explain his thinking process.

Many mages fell into deep thinking when they heard Lennar's speech. Most of them have read the electrolytic method paper by Mr. penzans. Many of them tried to decompose new elements by using the same method, but they even ignored water, the most common substance. For three hundred years, the theory of the four basic elements is like a heavy foundation stone. In the past three hundred years, the theory of the four basic elements has been developing rapidly Everyone's heart is deeply rooted, no one wants to shake this cornerstone in the past.

"Therefore, I focused on the water that I usually contact most. According to the paper of Mr. penzans, I designed the experiment, and electrolyzed two kinds of gas elements with special properties from the water," oakles "and" Hydra. "

Then, with the help of Lanchester, they repeated the experiment in the field and verified the properties of the two elements as described in the paper.

In the whole process, there was silence, people were observing, wondering and thinking.

It wasn't until Lena ignited the two proportional gases in a sealed container and got a certain quality of water that the crowd let out a low scream.

"According to the experimental phenomena, I guess that the past combustion theory can't explain this reaction. Does it have certain flaws or even fallacies?"

Word by word, Lena's words are like some kind of devil's whisper, which makes people think deeply and fear deeply.

"Therefore, based on the experimental phenomena I have seen, I have put forward a new theory to interpret the combustion reaction. Combustion is the reaction of matter and combustion aids, which produces compounds of oakles and gases with similar properties. As for the element of fire, it does not exist in any corner of this reaction."

Roar -

just as Lena's voice fell, there was a thunder in the sky, which was the first thunder since the summer of Wagner lake, just like the mark today's meeting will leave in the history of magic.

The electric light reflected Lena's side face, calm and confident, which made the mages in the front row think of a certain gentleman.

With a wave of Lanchester's hand, the particles of light interweave into two reactive projections in midair.2h20 (power on) = 2h2 + 02.

2h2 + 02 (combustion) = 2H2O.

This is an abbreviation of the name of the element, which means that under the condition of electricity, every two parts of water will be decomposed into two parts of Hydra gas and one part of oakles gas.

In the eyes of alchemists, this formula is so simple and elegant, clear and logical, and the number of elements on both sides of the equation is equal, which has a certain deterrent power.

"I think the reason why the mass of reactants before and after the alchemy reaction remains unchanged is the conservation of elements, so I write the alchemy reaction formula in this way. Of course, my ability is limited, and I can't verify all the current alchemy reactions, so this is just a hypothesis."

At this time, Lanchester gave a slight sign to Reina.

"I've repeated most of the known experiments these days, which basically conform to this rule, and a few mass reduction experiments, according to my observation, should produce a new substance that we have never noticed before."

Hearing Lanchester's explanation, Lena breathed a sigh of relief and continued.

"Then, from the discovery of Lord stanian, the conservation of elements should be a basic law of alchemy."

Crackle -

another flash of lightning flashed across the sky like a spark.

If the law of conservation of elements is correct, then alchemists can not only control each alchemy reaction qualitatively and quantitatively, observe its products, but also design new experiments according to the constituent elements of compounds. The existing alchemy system will make a big step forward.

After completely destroying the cornerstone of modern alchemy system, Lehner immediately recast a more stable foundation.

And he is just a master apprentice!
