In a world first, researchers have recorded exactly how solvents interact with dissolved materials, one atom at a time. After a solute, such as salt, dissolves in a solvent, such as water, the two ...

Solvated electrons are powerful reagents in the liquid phase that break chemical bonds and thereby create additional reactive species, including hydrogen atoms. We explored the distinct chemistry that ...

Wide-temperature applications of sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are severely limited by the sluggish ion insertion/diffusion ...

Oxetanes and other four-sided molecular rings have become increasingly common in drug design thanks to their small size and ...

SIR OLIVER LODGE'S highly suggestive letter (June 23, p. 176) will be welcome to the many chemists who have been endeavouring to interpret chemical phenomena in terms of the electronic theory of the ...

Did you know that a really fast chemical reaction makes riding in a car safer? Most cars have airbags built into the dashboard and steering wheel that can blow up like super-fast balloons during a ...

Physicists have found a way to cool molecules of sodium lithium down to 200 billionths of a Kelvin, just a hair above absolute zero. They did so by applying a technique called collisional cooling, in ...

The lab-created compounds — never seen before — might exist naturally on icy moons in the outer solar system. By Kenneth Chang Scientists have discovered two new forms of salty ice that probably do ...
