/melvin

the elements are actually arranged by atomic number (protons in the nucleus, always a whole number) and not the total elemental mass (sum of protons, neutrons, and ekectrons. not a whole number)

maybe arrange them how positive they are at their core?

Why is that woman being taken from behind by a soldier? Seems innaprpriate for an execution.

[–]feureau 2 points3 points ago

SPOILER ALERT

That woman is betrothed to the king (the guy with the crown, obviously) And the guy getting executed is her father. She made a deal with the king that if her father confesses to the accusation of treason, that his father's life would be spared. The king accepted the deal, so his father confesses to his crime, and the king praised him for it, and decided on the spot to behead him anyway.

No, they'd simply be in a line. Elements with similar properties are in the same column.

[–]DeathToPennies 0 points1 point ago

Well, I based my joke on AnotherClosetAtheist's idea to group them by the positivity of their core. This would, I assume, mean their protons. Therefore, the people with more protons would be grouped together. That would towards the bottom right corner of the table. That would leave the people who are more assholeish to the top left corner. Let's assign the more positive people as blue, and those with less protons (I'm not calling them negative, as a lack of protons does not make something more negative) red. The middle would be a purple hue, fading into red and blue on either end. Now, if dickishness were a property in our shitty, collaborative joke, then you'd be correct. But I see where you're coming from, and I've upvoted you for looking more into a joke than you should have. I love it when people do that.

DeathToPennies is his name, and the amount of pennies in circulation would then mean a lot of dead pennies

Canadian pennies. I have a 5gallon bucket of pennies, I'm pretty sure I added to the problem.

[–]xHassassin 5 points6 points ago

Not sure if you're aware, but the "atomic mass" that is given by the periodic table isn't actually the mass of an atom. It's the weighted average of all isotopes of that element based on their natural frequency of occurrence. If you actually looked at atomic mass for an individual atom of an element it'd be extremely close to a whole number.

[–]AnotherClosetAtheist 1 point2 points ago

why are you quoting "atomic mass" when I said "atomic number"

yes I am aware of isotopes and their considerations in the masses on the PT. I had to use this when running mass spec on unknowns

edit: regarding my comment on non-integers masses - that was a short-handed way of summarizing that atomic number is simply a count of protons, while the mass is a true measurement of an atom's mass, which may or may not fall exactly on a whole number

[–]xHassassin 0 points1 point ago

not the total elemental mass (sum of protons, neutrons, and ekectrons. not a whole number)

Thought you were referencing the value on the table, since if you actually took the total mass like that it would be basically a whole number.

[–]AnotherClosetAtheist -1 points0 points ago

it would be close to a whole number but since it is a mass measurement, it would never fall on a perfect integer because of the standardized (yet arbitrary) unit of the gram was invented before atomic theory.

since the unit of the atomic number is merely the total couns of protons, it will always be a perfect integer

[–]Das_Ist_Alle 0 points1 point ago

I was taught atomic mass is the mass of one mol of the element, or at least thats how we did Stoicheometry and stuff with the mol. but then again im a junior in Highschool. I don't know much.

[–]Proditus 0 points1 point ago

You use the atomic mass to determine the mass of 6.022*1023 atoms in grams, which is 1mol of that element. I think. Avogadro's Number is just a shortcut to keep the mass numbers standard between atomic mass and grams. Useful for measuring atoms of an element in more practical, workable amounts for chemical reactions and the like. In a chemical reaction, reactants and products are understood as either individual atoms and molecules or as moles of the involved atoms and molecules.

So, I think you're partially right. The important number is the same because they are always proportional, but what you said is like saying 1g is the same as 1kg.

Source: I'm probably very wrong. I barely understood chemistry in high school, and I understood stoicheometry even less. I'm surprised I can even remember what these numbers mean.

[–]DO_NOT_UPVOTES_ME 5 points6 points ago

Well Mendeleev, the guy the created the first periodic table, sorted by atomic mass and was able to get a pretty reliable representation that allowed them to infer properties, connections, and even predict the existence of undiscovered elements. Absolutely genius considering atoms, electrons, protons, and neutrons were either discovered or universally accepted theories. So, I think it would be acceptable to arrange their guests by mass -- not socially acceptable though.

Sorry for rambling, but Mendeleev was gangsta as fuck.

[–]AnotherClosetAtheist 2 points3 points ago

Yes, with a killer name to boot

[–]FuschiaKnight 1 point2 points ago

I've only taken intro Chem classes, but wouldn't more mass (on average) imply a more positive core?

[–]DO_NOT_UPVOTES_ME 1 point2 points ago

Neutrons.

[–]FuschiaKnight 0 points1 point ago

I've never learned much about the very positively charged cores, but do their atomic masses not arrange in the same order as mass does for the large atoms? I assumed atomic mass being an average was sufficient. That being said, I guess the number of protons does define which element it is, right?

[–]DO_NOT_UPVOTES_ME 1 point2 points ago

Elements are defined by the number of protons in the nucleus. The number of neutrons (isotopes) and the number of electrons (charge) can change for a given element while the number of protons is static. If the number of protons change (like in a nuclear reaction) then the result is a different element.

A really good example that ties all this together is nuclear fission. In a nuclear reaction Uranium-235 is bombarded with neutrons until one is forced into the nucleus creating the isotope Uranium-236. Uranium-236 is very angry and bloated (unstable) and it starts rapidly stretching until it pops very violently, splitting apart into the elements Barium and Krypton (defined by the number of protons in their nucleus) along with a few free neutrons. The energy released was previously stored in the strong nuclear force. The strong nuclear force is one of the four fundamental forces (gravity, electromagnetism, weak nuclear force, and strong nuclear force) that serves as the peace keeper holding the nucleus together. It is very short range, but it is massive and is the reason why, despite like charges hating one another, a nucleus comprised of several positive protons is possible.

I probably told you way more than you wanted to know, but its some seriously cool shit.

[–]FuschiaKnight 1 point2 points ago

No, that was fascinating! I don't really know much about the strong or weak force, just gravity and electromagnetic forces. Unfortunately, since I'm switching my major to Computer Science, I don't think I'll have any room in my schedule to learn any more Physics or Chemistry. So any off-hand knowledge is always good news!

[–]srs_house 0 points1 point ago

Uranium-236 is very angry and bloated (unstable)

Has it considered Midol?

[–]SloshedUberman 0 points1 point ago

For the most part, elements are arranged by weight as well as by number of protons. (This is not intentional) However, occasionally the number of neutrons in the nucleus can cause it to be heavier than the next element, despite it having a lower number of protons.

[–]FuschiaKnight 0 points1 point ago

Interesting. Thanks for the info!

[–]AnotherClosetAtheist 0 points1 point ago

the way you are asking: maybe. neutrons also donate to the nucleus.

it would be better to say "higher positive charge of the nucleus means more mass"

[–]yourmovecreep 0 points1 point ago

Both ends of the spectrum would be horrible.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Coincidentally they are also arranged by weight. Except for 4 or 5 examples. And the only relevant element is Nickel.

[–]Vimsefreet 0 points1 point ago

Well you could group them by weight seeing as atoms aren't more or less positive. it balances out.

[–]AnotherClosetAtheist 0 points1 point ago

Positive at their core... referring both to the positive nucleus (core) of the atom and a person's personality

[–]Vimsefreet 0 points1 point ago

But what about neutrons?

[–]Chaseman69 8 points9 points ago

It would suck to be ununoctinium in that case

[–]CanolaIsAlsoRapeseed 3 points4 points ago

Cause he knows he will never be as cool as unununium.

[–]shiftius 0 points1 point ago

ompletely irrelevant, but I can't say Unununium, without stuttering and adding at least 3 more un's.

Hopefully all of them argon.

[–]Ras_H_Tafari 5 points6 points ago

So the last row, last column is the fattest, sanest guest?

[–]Cynovae 2 points3 points ago

No, the first row, last column is the fattest guest. He's also the most mentally unstable.

And actually, the last row last column is the least stable noble gas, as they start becoming radioactive after kyrpton

[–]Ras_H_Tafari 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, I remembered that. I've totally studied chemistry recently

    we must see a picture of this IRL, PLEASE!!!

    [–]CoTripper 0 points1 point ago

    This is pretty much the best thing about any wedding ever. That and the vow to love one another for eternity. That's pretty cool too.

    My friends cousin is doing a chemistry themed wedding in a few months. The bridesmaids and groomsmen actually have to dress as the element that they were assigned. My friend was assigned Oxygen

    I cannot wait to see the pictures.

    That's pretty cool, but just so you know, people can kinda see all of the names on the chart. Not a big deal, but I thought I'd let you know.

    [–]dilleo 0 points1 point ago

    Thought those two greens would spell "MewTwo". Sadly disappointed.

    I would be so mad if I was grouped with the lanthanides

    [–]seanterisu -1 points0 points ago

    I refuse to sit silently and watch people tritely misuse the periodic table template for miscellaneous concepts. The layout of the table is because of the periodic nature of properties in elements for each row and column.

    This chart is nothing more than a fitting analogy for actual nerds and everything about TBBT.

    [–]average_joel[S] 4 points5 points ago

    By this assertion, do you not find other "periodic tables" amusing?

    [–]seanterisu 1 point2 points ago

    These are perfect examples to which I was referring by "miscellaneous concepts", yes.

    For example: in this image, what do slurpees and chocolate have in common that lucky charms and cheeze-its don't?

    They're taking a format they clearly don't grasp and forcing their concepts into it without realizing that it's shaped like that for a reason.

    tl;dr pisses me off to see the sanctity of science being ruined by poor humor. Show me a legitimate periodic table of _____ that draws conclusions to the relations between all elements of _____ and I will be both entertained and quite possibly amazed.

    This is just so bad. I hope he isn't a fucking chemist. Any scientist that likes big bang theory is just despicable.

    Anyone who likes big bang theory is just despicable.

    I was looking through the comments for someone hating on that show. You've made me a happy dude-thing tonight.

    [–]LikeAgaveF 0 points1 point ago

    Upvotes for all of you to help set things straight.

    I don't like it. I just don't like it. It's got a bad vibe. It's got a real bad vibe to it. You know? Just real bad. I wouldn't go, OP. Not there, no way. No way.

    Hm.

    Sheldon Cooper.

    Jim Parsons character from the Big Bang Theory.

    [–]DontStopNowBaby -3 points-2 points ago

    Either proof that Jim Parson will be at the wedding or this goes to karma Bureau of investigations
