We are all made from stars. And that's not just a beautiful metaphor. Apart from hydrogen, as many have heard from the Carl Sagan and Neil DeGrasse Tyson Cosmos series, every ingredient in the human ...

Researchers demonstrate a chemical reaction produced through an intermediary created by a separate chemical reaction, findings that could impact environmental remediation and fuel production. A ...

Drug discovery is like molecular Tetris. Chemists snap atoms together, adjusting the pieces until everything fits, and suddenly, a molecule makes a promising new medicine. Normally, creating better ...

Researchers from the Institute for Molecules and Materials at Radboud University, Netherlands, have demonstrated that a complex self-organizing chemical reaction network can perform various ...

It’s fun to watch chemistry labs explode on video, but you know what’s even more fun? Watching a chemistry experiment in action, with a good explanation of what’s going on. That’s science at its most ...

Undertake a design project to construct, test, and modify a device that either releases or absorbs thermal energy by chemical processes. In Chapter 5, students learned how the process of dissolving ...

Everything around us is made of molecules. Molecules are in constant motion, and when they collide just right, chemical reactions can occur! Chemical reactions can happen fast or slow, and the ...
