Efficiently capturing and storing excess heat, particularly below 200°C, is paramount to achieving a carbon-neutral society.

An interaction between two proteins points to a molecular basis for memory. But how do memories last when the molecules that ...

Water molecules attract one another based on the attraction between the positive end of one water molecule and the negative end of another. Summary Students will be introduced to the idea that water ...

3 Explore Step 2 Do an activity to explore the attractions water molecules have for each other. In this activity, students look closely at a drop of water and move drops of water on wax paper. They ...

"Space ice" contains tiny crystals and is not a completely disordered material like liquid water, as previously assumed, ...

One of the newly discovered hydrates, which has two sodium chloride molecules for every 17 water molecules. This crystal formed at high pressure but remained stable at cold, low-pressure conditions.

Many of the anomalous properties of water can be traced to the special interactions between the individual water molecules—the so-called hydrogen bonds. Each water molecule can donate two of ...

For the first time, Northwestern University scientists have watched water molecules in real-time as they prepared to give up electrons to form oxygen.

After the study experiment, the researchers discovered two new hydrates — one utilizing two salt molecules for every 17 water molecules, and another with one salt molecule for every 13 molecules.

The binding energy is a measure of how easily two water molecules can be separated from each other—for example, during the transition from ice to liquid water.
