QUESTION: Why can’t we combine hydrogen and oxygen to make water? ANSWER: We can combine hydrogen and oxygen to make water. And we can even get energy out of the process that we might be able to use ...

We all know the equation – hydrogen plus oxygen equals water. But now scientists have captured molecular-scale video of that famous meeting in action, which could lead to a new way to generate large ...

A new study captured never-before-seen footage of hydrogen and oxygen atoms combining to form a miniature water droplet out of "thin air." The newly improved reaction could one day help astronauts ...

WE have made a preliminary survey of the principal respects in which the reaction of deuterium with oxygen differs from that of ordinary hydrogen. The deuterium was prepared by the nearly quantitative ...

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 ...

A single, robust catalyst that splits water into hydrogen and oxygen has been developed with Earth-abundant materials that approach the efficiency of more expensive platinum, according to scientists.

The explosion-limit equation is considered term by term for the evaluation of the various constants and a comparison of the experimental figures with theoretical expectations. In general, the ...

In the future, hydrogen produced from sunlight and water using photocatalysts could provide a source of clean energy. Researchers have developed a method to detect the oxygen produced from this ...

Sunlight, water, and air may soon replace fossil-fuel-driven chemistry in producing hydrogen peroxide, one ...

Although chromium itself is not an active element, its continuous dissolution enables a reversible surface transformation ...
