@Ralphgtx280 The Prof gave two lectures there last week!

It would be nice to have e video explaining the supposed properties of this element based on its periodicitiy. And why would this element be better in applications instead of the ones in the same group.

Thanks to your videos, I'm now the top student in my AP Chem class!

@sm0kingJay I'll always pay attention to everything someone that says "I don't know" will say.

[sm0kingJay]

"Why do they do that"

"I don't know" - still goes on to explain it as much as possible <3

It would be nice if anyone was trying to make the kinds of exotic matter that we need to build starship drives and wormhole bridges.
