Whenever there is talk of the most expensive item in the world, the name of 'Diamond' usually comes first in the mind, but it is not so. There are many substances which are more expensive than 'diamond', including platinum, rhodium, uranium and californium. Just think what will be the most expensive material on earth?
There is also a substance in the world which is called the most expensive substance on the earth. Its name is Antimatter . Perhaps you too are hearing this name for the first time. Antimatter is so expensive that by selling 1 gram of it you can buy 100 small countries. The cost of 1 gram of this is so high that you cannot even count it.
Let's know what is this 'antimatter' after all?
Antimatter (Antimatter ) is the most expensive material in the soil. It is also called the most expensive material in the world. In Hindi, 'antimatter' is also called 'pratidravya' or 'antimatter'. Just as a 'substance' is made up of particles, in the same way a 'repellent' is also made up of antimatter.
Where is 'antimatter' found?
It was discovered in the 20th century. It is present in small pieces in space. Just as all physical objects are made up of matter, and matter contains protons, electrons and neutrons, similarly antimatter consists of antiprotons, positrons and antinutrons. To make an antimatter, scientists in the lab mix it with other substances and refine it a bit.
After all, how much does 'antimatter' cost?
Currently, the price of 1 gram of antimatter is around $ 62.5 trillion (Rs 4,56,95,03,12,50,00,00) . 'Antimatter' is considered to be the most expensive, because the technology that makes it is considered to be the most expensive. It costs about 250 lakh rupees to make 1 mg 'antimatter'.
Where is 'antimatter' used?
Antimatter is used to fuel aircraft going into space. It is also used in medical imaging in hospitals and radioactive molecules as positron emission tomography. Apart from this, it is also used in nuclear weapons. About half a kilogram of antimatter has more destructive power than the world's largest 'hydrogen bomb'. It is also used in rocket launcher.
Scientists say that, antimatter is similar to a substance, but everything inside its atom is inverted. The Atom normally consists of positive charged nucleus and negative charged electrons, but the 'antimatter' Atom consists of negatively charged nucleus and positive charged electrons. It is also a kind of fuel, which is used in spacecraft and aircraft.
