A team of researchers led by Felipe Herrera, a professor at the University of Santiago and a researcher at the Millennium ...

Chemical reactions occur on the scale of atomic vibrations—one million times smaller than the thickness of a human hair. These tiny movements are difficult to control. Established methods include the ...

Scientists have observed so-called 'roaming' chemical reactions, those that at certain points move away from the lowest minimum energy 'path of least resistance', in highly excited energy states for ...

New play in transition metal chemistry playbook revealed. New research shows that net oxidative addition can occur via a different order of events in which the transitiion metal complex accepts ...

A hot gas dissociates very quickly, on the order of microseconds. One might think we could neglect the speed of dissociation, then, and model the gas in an equilibrium state. However, many things ...

Some industrial processes used to create useful chemicals require heat, but heating methods are often inefficient, partly because they heat a greater volume of space than they really need to.

A team develops a nanoreactor combining magnetic material and plasmonic catalysts. Remote control of step-by-step catalytic reactions of precursor led to cinnamaldehyde product with 95% yield. Various ...

Note: This video is designed to help the teacher better understand the lesson and is NOT intended to be shown to students. It includes observations and conclusions that students are meant to make on ...

New research has shown the formation of bubbles on electrodes, usually thought to be a hindrance, can be beneficial, with deliberately added bubbles, or oil droplets, able to accelerate processes such ...

A new electrochemical system simultaneously converts plant-derived materials and nitrate pollutants into valuable industrial ...
