"Protons define the element, its chemistry..." Um, isn't the chemistry of an element defined by its electronic structure? At first I thought you were arguing that protons don't define the element... Also, I never decided which element I was going to be for Halloween... Hmmm... Einsteinium might be easy if you didn't put the right amount of electrons on dressed like Einstein under your orbitals...

Of course they don't. The atomic number does. , Are you messing with me? I suck at chemistry but I thoughts protons = atomic number. My brain has gone into full bore dissertation rot. Would you believe I had to look up the units of energy today on Wikipedia?

Moi? You are always so straightforward and serious that I know I should never doubt you.

Yet another forumite confuses me and LarryC.

You may be special, and you may be used to getting your way, but I'm more stubborn than you are special. I promise you that.

Tag, you're it. I should try to keep my mind from wandering, but I like the things it brings back from its travels.

I figure I'm already down on the county's list for exposure to physics (he loves magnets) and botany (oh, what a great toy leaves are) so why not chemistry?
