v4 Chapter 1142: Material changes

"After the silicon-based naphtha contaminated the Shenzhou, the total mass of the Shenzhou changed very little. The reason for the small mass change was also the mass conversion of nuclear power."

The teams responsible for the inspection tasks of the Shenzhou ship successively reported the inspection results.

"Now, the key is to confirm the way that the silicon-based naphtha invades the battleship, and how the armor and steel layer of the battleship can be transformed into silicon-based naphtha." The scientific team convened by the Earth Military Academy gave a suggestion.

Since the scientific team is not on the Shenzhou, the Academy of Military Sciences can only give advice, and there is not much help that can be provided.

"From the perspective of the microstructure of matter, this shouldn't happen." The researchers on board the ship were very surprised by the strange ability of the silicon-based naphtha.

The reason for the surprise is simple.

In the universe, matter is stable to some extent.

There are so many elements on the periodic table, each of which is different.

The main body of the silicon-based naphtha is silicon.

However, on the hull of warships, silicon is actually less, and more of it is steel alloy.

"Is it determined that the silicon-based naphtha directly pollutes the steel alloy into a black silicon-based substance?" Yang Yuping asked again, wanting to confirm this.

"Yes, the overall quality of the Shenzhou has not changed, but the quality of the vines formed by the silicon-based naphtha has increased, while the quality of the steel alloy of the hull is decreasing. Therefore, it is basically certain that the silicon-based naphtha has polluted the ship's hull and changed the steel. Into a silicon-based substance." Zhao Anya confirmed.

"Silicon-based naphtha can only contaminate metals, or can it contaminate any substance?" Yang Yuping asked again.

"Any matter, if the arm of a scientific researcher touches the vines of silicon-based naphtha, the human body will also be contaminated, and all of our protective clothing cannot isolate the pollution of silicon-based naphtha." Zhao Anya replied.

"Is there a difference in the speed of silicon-based naphtha polluting different types of substances?" Yang Yuping asked again.

"This...the results of my detection are different in speed, but it is only a visual inspection, and no rigorous experimental test has been carried out, so I can't be sure." Zhao Anya frowned and answered.

At this moment.

Han Youwei interjected: "Using star power for defense has a certain effect. It can isolate the invasion of silicon-based naphtha, but star power is extremely expensive."

"Next, perform experiments according to my requirements to test the experimental data of silicon-based naphtha." Yang Yuping's tone was calm like a machine, as if this was his usual laboratory work.

Someone in the military scientific research class said anxiously: "Now is not the time to do experiments, we should consider how to get out of trouble.

"Now the Shenzhou has stalled and is being pulled toward the surface of the star by the gravity of the red dwarf.

"Once it penetrates the gaseous plasma layer of the red dwarf, it will be overwhelmed by the silicon-based naphtha, and there will be no chance of escape."

On the Shenzhou, there were differences.

Some people want to figure out what the silicon-based naphtha is.

Another part of people thinks that we should find a way to get out of trouble first.

Fang Yuan interrupted everyone's argument aloud, saying: "Both issues must be resolved, and the experimental team will conduct tests in accordance with the professor's requirements.

"Combat personnel began to prepare for relief operations, discussing action plans.

"Moreover, in my opinion, it is not that difficult for us to get out of trouble.

"If you just want to protect the lives of all personnel on the warship, you can get out by making a hole in the ship's hull.

"It's just that this means giving up Shenzhou.

"What we really have to decide is whether to abandon the Shenzhou."

All the space soldiers on the Shenzhou spacecraft, hearing Fang Yuan's calm voice, their nervousness stabilized again.

Regardless of whether they can understand Fang Yuan's words, but the human beings have been killed all the way from the earth to here, Fang Yuan has long been a myth in everyone's hearts.

The more you understand the universe, the more you know what Fang Yuan and this human fleet have done.

A primary civilization with a level of 1.6 civilization and a war of higher civilizations has long been beyond the understanding of normal people.

Therefore, as long as Fang Yuan speaks, as long as he hears this voice, all Space Army soldiers can feel confident.

"Yes, that's right. Let's just listen to the generals. We will protect the experimental group for testing first. Isn't it easy to get out of the way? There are more than 500 people on the Shenzhou, and it is not difficult to rescue them one by one." Group combat personnel and begin to open the way for the experimental group.

In accordance with Yang Yuping's requirements, the experimental group began to test the silicon-based naphtha while ensuring safety.

The detection method is very simple. Since it is necessary to detect the speed of different substances contaminated by silica-based naphtha, just throw various elemental elements onto the silica-based naphtha and directly observe the data.

Moreover, Yang Yuping gave the detection order of each element.

"First, carbon element, then copper, iron..." The leader of the experimental group arranged work, and at the same time was ready to withdraw at any time to ensure safety.

In the experimental group, in accordance with the test sequence, a single species was put into the vines of silica-based naphtha.

Then, report the tested data.

The speed at which each element is assimilated by the silica-based naphtha is different, ranging from five to ten minutes.

However, before the experimental group has completed all the experiments, only two sets of experiments have been carried out.

Yang Yuping has already given a conclusion: "Okay, the conclusion can already be determined, and the subsequent experiments are only to confirm the inference."

"What's the conclusion?" Fang Yuan raised his brow and asked quickly.

"Silicon-based naphtha can indeed assimilate all the substances we know, and the law is on the periodic table..."

Yang Yuping began to explain his inference: "Based on the two sets of experimental results, the conclusions of carbon element and copper element.

"The assimilation speed of carbon element is fast, and the assimilation speed of copper element is slow. This is related to the changes in the nucleus.

"Because after the matter changes, most of the mass will become silicon.

"The transformation of carbon into silicon is fusion, and the transformation of copper into silicon is fission.

"Both are changes in the nucleus and both release energy.

"However, fusion releases more energy than fission, so carbon element is assimilated faster.

"The next thing to be tested is elemental calcium. As expected, the rate of assimilation of elemental calcium is the slowest in the test group.

"Because the elemental calcium is turned into silicon, it is fission, but on the periodic table, the elements before iron fusion release energy, and fission absorbs energy.

"Therefore, the fission of calcium requires a lot of energy from the silicon-based naphtha to complete.

"The conclusion is that if you want to prevent the invasion of silicon-based naphtha, you can use the elements between silicon and iron in the element cycle to create a defense layer."
