7. Matter- sub atomics and atomics
| 7.11 |
Applying our new understandings to atom level structures |
|
| Taking these understandings into account, we can now make predictions on the likely construction of atomic nuclei in the Universe and how they are constructed. We can also use the relative understanding of conditions within "creation" environments for atomic nuclei and then make predictions on the likely abundance of atomic structures within the Universe. | ||
| 7.11.1 | The construction of atomic nucleus determining the fundamental personality of atoms, not simply its mass and electron configuration | |
| What determines the principle personality of a human being- their clothes, or what is in their head? Of course, we know that clothes are important, yet we also know that it is the unique functioning of an individual's brain that determines their behaviour. | ||
| This example highlights the flaw in terms of simply looking at the "clothes" of atomic structures, rather than trying to understand their "brains". | ||
| We clearly understand that the majority of mass of an atom is its nucleus. Electrons are attracted to the nucleus, not the other way around. Like the clothes analogy, we also understand that atoms can and do change electron configurations in "real life conditions" all the time. So how can we possibly attempt to build an accurate model of atomic science based on "skin deep" observations of electrons.? The simple answer is we can't. | ||
| We therefore see the study of the atomic nucleus of Protons and Neutrons as the key to understanding the behavioral personalities of atoms, not simply science's current model of an atoms mass and its electron (valency) configuration. | ||
| By understanding how different nucleus structures are constructed and behave, ignoring for a moment the superficial behaviour of electrons, we are able to perfectly describe the atomic world- with more detail and accuracy than ever before in human history. | ||
| No longer do we need to continue to use the current model of atomic nucleus that creates an image similar to "red" and "green" smarties tightly packed together. For the first time we will be able to explore why atomic nuclei are constructed the way they are. | ||
| Not only is this model able to describe more about the different personalities of atomic structures, but we are able to massively simplify our understanding of how and why molecules and compounds are formed. | ||
