First up, I truly am sorry for flooding the chemistry forum with my replies and all. Next, my question. Yes, we've studied that atoms form nice bonds and all to be stable and how that slowly leads to macro-structures and all. But have anyone ever thought of this:
Take a piece of diamond (or anything at all) and magnify the very tip of the tip of diamond. What would we see? A LONE carbon atom at the very peak without 3 other carbon atoms to stabilise it (its only stuck to the carbon atom directly below it). Now, please tell me how can this be? (I have posed this question to chemistry geniuses *read: As in chem and study in harvard, etc) and they cant seem to give any answer at all). Perhaps, something I got off wiki might help: Molecular orbital theory. At this point, please do not confuse this theory with that of the hybrid linked orbital theory where electrons are held in orbitals and all. This theory concerns macro-structures and implies (at least that's what I surmise from the article) that all electrons in bonds are delocalised throughout the molecule/compound/structure. Thus, (this is what I thought of) they would then result in a certain 'resonant energy' state which allows the entire structure to share in the many many combined stability which then "spread" this "resonant energy" to the carbon atom at the tip of the tip of a diamond to be stable and thus, not react.
Part (b) of question. If the above theory (mine and wiki's combined) is true. Could there be a certain amount of energy locked into every macro-structure which ensures their stability? Using chemical energetics, we learn that all the energy is accounted for. But then, usually, if we aren't looking for a particular thing, we won't really find it right? So why don't we test the (mine-wiki) theory by getting 2 pieces of diamonds. One will be exactly 10 times the mass of the other. Check the energy inside both (either by combusting or some other method) and see if there is any unaccounted for energy? It will most probably be fleeting since it is shared by the whole structure and will probably withdraw its influence once the external part of the structure undergoes alot of stress which then makes it more logical for the structure to pull in this "resonant energy" to enforce the bonds in the inner structure thus increasing the strength of the remaining structure and decreasing the speed at which it reacts until finally, the remaining amount of bonds is too little to support this "resonant energy" and the energy cloud "collapses". Some points to include could be the baseline of bond-energy in which such a "resonant energy" can active itself over the whole structure and also the amount of stability given to any "unstable" atom situated at the surface of the structure which then depends on a proposed mathematical theory which links the surface area (hence the number of unstable atoms) with the excess bond energy which can be used to enhanced stability. *proposed formula could be: total excess (unused bond stability energy) energy divided by the number of unstable molecules and the energy required to give them stability (hence surface area in a way) taking into account the fact that although electrons are supposed to be held in fixed orbitals, many molecules (like benzene) have delocalised electrons which allows the electrons to "fly around freely" and allow the whole molecule to be relatively stable then what is expected to be.
Thanks for taking the time to read through this very long post and please include all comments for they are warmly welcomed.
