road to electronegativity

[AntonioLao]

The road to electronegativity is full of twists and turns, of hidden bright and dark places which surprise every step and stop of the way. The first stop would be the chemical element of metallic palladium. Electronegativity is the tendency of nuclei to attract electrons. Not exclusively electrons, since the nuclei by conventional agreement, are always electrically positively charged they are known to attract anything that has a net negative electric charge like electrons, muons, and tau particles. The latter are heavier versions of the electrons. Electron, muon, and tau all have the same unit of electric charge that is -1 unit of the basic electronic charge of 16.0217653 ¸10 coulombs and intrinsic spin of ½ while their mass values and magnetic moments are different.

The metal palladium has a value for electronegativity of 2.2 in the Pauling scale. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronegativity. As noted in the chart, fluorine is the most electronegative of all the elements while palladium in just somewhere in the middle. However, there are approximately 6 elements with the same value of 2.2 which include the element of hydrogen, the key ingredient for fusion. To be continued.

I am looking forward to it,we
need to become infused with fusion!

Many chemical elements were found by the ancient/medieval alchemists. Thanks to them modern science of chemistry is made much easier. However, since the discovery of electron http://www.aip.org/history/electron/ it is now generally accepted that all chemical process is due to the activities of these electrons between quantized energy levels of the atoms. The physical theory describing these processes is quantum mechanics. The discovery of radioactivity add to the physical facts that much more energy can be derived from within the nuclei of atoms. And it is the transmutation of nuclei that is exactly what the alchemists will hoping to accomplish but hindered by the crude tools they were using.

Thank you Antonio again,for the website directions.I will be looking them both up
over the weekend while the forum is off line for upgrading,will provide a focus for
my wondering mind!I like what you so generously said,with regard the early
alchemists,and how theywere indeed limited by the some what crude tools
they had to work with.Although I think that in the science of transforming the
human being,by mental disciplines and practices,they were way ahead of their
time!
by the way,Antonio,meet me in the many worlds pub,and i will treat you to a beer!


kindest regards michael.

i will treat you to a beer!

Thanks. But I have to pass because of sugar diabetes.
