Another 'lesson' in chemistry could be about "mixtures." we have already found that everything seeks to dominate the world through expansion, and, given the fundamental force of growth, will, yes? now we want to know why, for example, one litre of oil contaminates a huge volume of water... how and why?
Well, if we were to observe that oil is basically 'biomass,' that stems from "ageing," we could understand that all oil under the ocean was once living things, like trees pulped enough and heated enough equals oil, yes?
~ By the way, if you take a tree, and 'burn' it, it will turn to coal, liquefy that and it turns to oil!
So, the oil, which is biomass, which means carbon, yes? carbon is like a gas that is made of the same stuff that goes into diamonds, so you might think it is hard. carbon is the same stuff that goes into soda, being "carbonated drinks" with added sodium, so you might think it is soft. where does carbon sit then, is it the "ultimate chemical?"
Carbon is biomass that has been compressed at various levels. if you look at coal or a diamond, it has been compressed many times, allowing the coal to burn, giving off steam quickly compared to it's weight, and, that is why it is used in combustion engines - it will give off nearly an equal amount of 'energy' as it contains, yes? this is because it is so low down on the periodic table, where the amount of protons and electrons are 'soluble,' or, 'flexible,' as it will be easy to mould - you can crush it with your hands, yes? coal is about the only biomass element, as it will become what it is from living things, and, make up living things too. these living things are highly reactive, as they will react at a very high level, like a nerve in the body is made of carbon, you know... those little hairs as eyelashes that feel so well? very reactive to the world around them, yes?
Diamonds are less reactive as they have been compressed more! that is right, you see those ugly little coal chunks? they, after a while, produce diamonds, where the pigment has been lost due to the original state of things being colourless, as black pigment is acquired, and, as time elapses, pigment is lost due to it being 'pushed out.' this is due to the element crushing the pigment, like a body will reveal a white bone eventually, yes? then, as it gathers dirt, more biomass, it will become black and so forth, of course.
So, carbon is the ultimate chemical for most 'solid stuff.' carbon is very reactive with the world around it, so will mix with many things. the higher up the periodic table you go, the easier these things will mix, as they are 'less dense.' that means that water, for oil spills, will result in something that is denser, being so close to the other on the table, will compliment each other, as oxygen is very reactive, and so is hydrogen, being the fundamental element.
But, you might ask, throwing a blob of gold into the water... why doesn't that mix? well, the gold is in a different state to the other fluids, and, will rather seek to dominate with growing under warm weather, and, being so soft, will just bend and be moulded. but, what about this gold stuff, it is much prettier than coal... why not focus on that for a while?
Well, gold is solid, in that it is very hard to dissolve, yet not bend. it is easy to bend because it is not balanced regarding it's orbital arrangements; the electrons that pair with the protons have other electrons attracted to them - orbitals - that 'protect' the element by forming an electrical field around it that "tastes" the other things around it, to absorb them, for example. the orbitals will move out the way and cover the holes created by the new materials incoming r outgoing because of electron bonding, where it would be like pushing your hand through a swimming pool, where the water will go back to "normal" when you pull your hand out, of course. think of orbitals as a swimming pool around the element, okay?
