Thank you! That was all very interesting
Seriously, I appreciate it, and chemistry is a subject I should surely take a GREAT COURSE in.
However, my post titled "I would think a 1 gram (5 carat) diamond could contain a very large amount of carbon-14" was actually about a Diamond Sandwich used to encase carbon-14 in the new battery prototype RL and I were discussing. The technology is using manufactured diamonds as a shell around carbon-14 to create a microwatt battery. You'll have to read from where I wrote "WOW CHECK THIS OUT RL" all the way down to RL's last post in the thread to get the full discussion.
I'd absolutely enjoy reading your thoughts on it. Especially in light of this comment:
I suppose you could make a 5-gram diamond of C14, but you’re not likely to find one in nature.
And please leave my BuckyBalls out of this conversation!
lol
