Did You Know ? The Chemistry Teach You The Meaning of Life

Every Substance Should be Stability

In chemistry we learn about reactions. What is reaction for? Elements that aren't stable tend to react and bonds with other elements. There are some elements that have been stable from the beginning, they are called with noble gases, which is their abundance in the earth is very little. Only about 6 elements out of a total of 118 elements are known. A little right? 

So what can we take from the reaction between these elements and also the noble gas ?

Here we assumed an individual as an element. Where the majority of them are unstable elements. Why that  is majority? Because there are some unmarried individuals until the end of their lives and their numbers are very little, just like the abundance of noble gases in the earth as well as the number in the periodic table. An individual need for a partner. the goal, To complement each other, to make them more "stable". 

Because the two individuals "react" again they eventually form a family that may be more "stable". When a person marries he will go directly to society and face reality, society is like a compound. The presence of new members in the family presents a new challenge for both individuals, in stable element chemistry can also be "disturbed" by the presence of other compounds or by providing a special "treatment" that makes it fragmented and reacts with other elements. Divorce? This is one that happens to two individuals who just "react" earlier.
We don't know whether the reaction is going in the same direction or back and forth. If the "reaction" is going both ways, there is the possibility of disturbance of the reaction from the opposite direction. The causes of divorce are generally caused by environmental factors rather than individual factors themselves. And in chemistry, "disrupted" reactions generally occur because of environmental factors. Furthermore, the noble gas that had been stable initially was able to "forced" compounded with other elements. It also affects a person who has the ideal of not getting married to become willing to marry. It's just that it takes "energy" is quite / very high.


Each Reaction Towards the Balance

Heat transfer, mass conservation, form of structure, etc. want a balanced position. Is it true that in real life everything is like that? We will take an example of the issue, namely illegal logging. For example, when many individuals try to destroy the forest, will nature return it as soon as humans destroy it? Probably not, but nature has its own way of recovering itself. Nature will make a disaster as a result of human actions that have disturbed its "equilibrium". What about the humans? Some people will try to help nature restore its "equilibrium".

Another example-which is in the human sphere with the man himself-if a state's order is deemed not to be on the right track or has disturbed the existing equilibrium, then the people will seek to restore the equilibrium, the reform. So what if the order is already balanced? Is it possible to interfere with his reaction and create a new equilibrium?
From the explanation above, it is possible. The real example is about ideological change in a State order. When a country feels that they are equal, the environment that does not want such a balance will "force" and expend "energy" more to disturb and create a new ideology. Like communism that slowly began to collapse and be replaced with democracy, with the energy used is "war".

In some reaction, the slowest rate indicates the total reaction rate. Be an individual who determines the course of a reaction, does not mean slow in thinking and innovating, but being the slowest to make the reaction go the wrong way


The Carbon Turn to Diamonds In Highest Temperatures and Pressures

Allotropes are a form of chemical elements that are structurally different but their constituents remain the same. In short, graphite and diamond are the same carbon but different molecular structures. Graphite and diamond are allotropes of carbon. 

Each individual is like carbon. Want to be "diamond" or "graphite" depends on the attitude, thinking, and the way we face life problems.  Graphite is at a depth of 7-8 Km from the surface of the earth and is in an environment with temperatures around 300-500 degrees Celsius and pressure around 0.4-0.5 GPa or about 40-50 atmospheres. While diamonds are at a depth of 100-200 Km from the surface of the earth and are in an environment with temperatures around 900-1300 degrees Celsius with a pressure of about 40-50 thousand atmospheres.  Can you see the difference?  Similar to humans. They transform, change "structure", into adulthood.  Humans will seek their own identity and ideals, as well as survive against the "pressures" and "temperatures" of the surrounding environment.  An individual may be a "diamond", a brilliant, professional according to his passion, success in his life, and valuable to the crowd.  They can also be "graphite", ordinary people, but still can provide benefits for the people though not as "diamond".  Or worse, humans do not develop, dare not face challenges and solve problems in their lives, can only run, then to death they will remain a "carbon" without any meaningful change.

When faced with some problem, most people have 3 attitudes. Resist the problem, run away from the problem, or go ahead with the problem. And what's working at that moment, determining who we are going "


Elements Have Their Own Characters, When United They Have Different Characteristics

Water. The water has a chemical formula H2O. Now imagine of H2O or water reunited with fire, what happened? The fire goes out, or the water goes out? What we wants to convey is, if seen from its elemental characteristics, oxygen (O2) is the gas used in the combustion reaction. Fire will not fire if there is no oxygen in the air. While the gas hydrogen (H2) is the most combustible gas if met the oxygen earlier. And when they react in water form, will the water have any hot, flammable, or even reactive and explosive characteristics? Water characteristics are quite the opposite. The message we can take from here is that each individual has their own characteristics that may not be known to other individuals. They may have different characteristics when "reacting" with many people or possibly between individuals. Characteristics that we know and see when we meet individuals themselves make it possible that when he is alone or in another "environment," his characteristics can differ greatly, even into something we never expected before. A person who looks ignorant may have a greater concern than others. So, do not be quick to take a conclusion even though we've known a long time with someone, let him give his explanation.

We can not merely judge a person through the eyes. Many things that turned out not to be seen with our eyes. Being sensitive to the environment and empathy with others is a way of knowing what the eye can not see


Each Element Has its Own Benefits

Radioactive elements of uranium and radon, toxic elements such as halogens (fluorine, bromine, etc.), heavy metals like lead, they are all detrimental. However, if we want to see from a different point of view they all have benefits. Radioactive elements can be used as a healing medium for cancer and also as a power plant. Halogen elements in the form of gases are toxic, but in other forms it is useful, for example iodine is useful for preventing goiter. So also with lead, he is a danger if it is in the waters and drunk beyond the threshold. But lead can be used for anti-knocking on the engine in the form of a Tetra-Ethyl Lead compound.

Sometimes we always think for what dangerous people are on earth? Just annoying people wrote or think of ourselves as one of not worth for lives. In fact, everything created is useful. don't look at from a single perspective cause another perspective it has a great value. 

Just like elements of the above elements, is considered harmful but from another perspective, he has enormous benefits.

Great post man. I love chemistry during study.

Thanks For reading @techanicalguy

wow! if only the chemistry lessons would've been presented like that in school!
Really good read, thank you!

Thanks for reading,
