The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 1157
[Chapter 1157 Experiment Success]
Since Lin Tian had already found the direction, he only needed to improve on this plan, so Lin Tian prepared to grind the three raw materials again and then merge them.
Previously, Lin Tian first grind the sulfur, then add saltpeter powder, and then add charcoal. When Lin Tian added the charcoal and grinded it, the previous explosion occurred. So Lin Tian planned to grind the charcoal first, then add saltpeter powder, and finally add sulfur and grind it. Lin Tian
wanted to see what reaction would happen if the three raw materials were added in a different order, so Lin Tian started to work in the order he thought in his mind.
Originally, the grinding of charcoal and saltpeter powder was normal, but when Lin Tian added sulfur to grind it, a “bang” sound came from under the stone in Lin Tian’s hand again.
As a last resort, Lin Tian could only clean the crushed stones again, and then grind and mix them in a different order. This time, Lin Tian could only add saltpeter powder last. This
time it was very smooth and nothing happened, because saltpeter powder was originally a powdery item, so it only needed a simple grinding and crushing process. After seeing this scene, Lin Tian had some guesses in his mind. Could it be that there was a problem somewhere else?
However, when Lin Tian added the saltpeter powder and started to crush it, there was no explosion at the beginning. Instead, it exploded when he rotated the stone in his hand for the third circle.
So Lin Tian had to change the order of sulfur and charcoal to see if there would be an explosion. There was no explosion at first, but it exploded again when the saltpeter powder was added at the end and the crushing and mixing were carried out.
Lin Tian couldn’t help but guess in his heart that there was a problem with the crushing and mixing steps?
Since he already had a guess in his mind, he had to find a way to verify this problem. Lin Tian couldn’t help but think in his heart, how could he prove that there was a problem with the mixing step?
Lin Tian couldn’t help but think in his heart, if he carried out these steps separately, wouldn’t the mixing problem be solved? If he crushed and crushed them separately, wouldn’t the only crushing and crushing problem be solved?
“Hahahaha, I’m really a genius. Hahaha…”
Lin Tian couldn’t help but think in his heart, and laughed out loud. What Lin Tian didn’t know was that, coupled with the explosion caused by an accident in his previous experiment, Lin Tian was now covered in dust because of the previous explosion.
So, at this moment, Lin Tian stood up, showing only two rows of very white teeth, which looked very funny.
After laughing, Lin Tian began the experiment. Lin Tian first crushed the sulfur, and then put it in a bamboo tube on the side for later use. The same was true for saltpeter and charcoal. Lin Tian crushed them separately and put them in bamboo tubes separately. This step was completed without any unexpected situation.
After Lin Tian crushed and crushed all three main materials, he seemed very excited, because this meant that what Lin Tian thought was not wrong.
Then the next step is the problem of sufficient mixing. If the mixing is completed, then Lin Tian will be able to successfully make gunpowder.
To be on the safe side, Lin Tian first took a small amount of sulfur powder, saltpeter powder, and charcoal powder, and then put them in a small container. This time, Lin Tian did not choose to crush and mix, but put them in the small container to stir and mix.
Lin Tian first put in the sulfur powder, and then added an equal amount of saltpeter powder. Since Lin Tian had already crushed the sulfur and saltpeter together before, the two would not react, so Lin Tian was not worried about the explosion of the two.
After adding the two, Lin Tian first stirred and mixed them in the small container, and then Lin Tian took a small amount of charcoal powder and sprinkled it into the container containing the mixture of sulfur powder and saltpeter powder.
At this time, the surroundings were particularly quiet, and Lin Tian’s heart was in his throat, “booming” as if it was about to jump out. Lin Tian could clearly feel his heartbeat, so Lin Tian couldn’t help but become more nervous.
As the charcoal powder was sprinkled in little by little, there was no special reaction in the container, let alone a reaction, there was not even a little movement. So, Lin Tian became relieved.
Finally, when Lin Tian sprinkled the charcoal powder he took with the bamboo stick into the container containing the mixture of sulfur powder and saltpeter powder, there was no explosion in the container. The next step was to stir it.
Because there were always unexpected situations before, now Lin Tian has completely touched the three, and there was no accident at all, so Lin Tian couldn’t help but become more cautious.
Lin Tian picked up another small bamboo stick, and then carefully inserted it into the container, stirring it slowly. As Lin Tian slowly stirred, the sulfur powder, saltpeter powder and charcoal powder were completely mixed together.
Until this time, there was no accident, and when Lin Tian felt that the stirring was almost done, when the three main materials were completely mixed, Lin Tian stopped the action in his hand. At this time, Lin Tian
also became extremely excited, because the full mixing of the three main materials also represented the success of Lin Tian’s experiment, and the gunpowder was successfully made by Lin Tian.
At the same time, Lin Tian was still thinking about the answer to a question in his heart, that is, why did that situation happen before, that is, when the three materials were crushed and crushed, why did the explosion occur when the three materials were mixed?
Because if these three materials are crushed and mixed at the same time, a lot of time will be saved. Although it only saves a little time, Lin Tian, as a young man in the 21st century, has extremely advanced and progressive ideas, and of course he can’t do without planning for his life.
So Lin Tian couldn’t help but pick up the two stones used for crushing before, and then imitated the scene of crushing sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal without adding sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal.
At the same time, Lin Tian also tilted his head and looked carefully at the gap between the two stones. Lin Tian also listened to the low sound of the two stones rubbing against each other, so Lin Tian figured it out.
It turned out that sparks would be generated when the two stones rubbed against each other, and it was these sparks that caused the mixture of the three to explode.
