The chemical bond formed by the transfer of electrons from one atom to another is called ionic bond. It is also known as electrovalent bond. And the compounds containing ionic bonds are called ionic ...

In chemistry, the chemical nomenclature of ionic and molecular compounds uses a systematic approach of prefixes to indicate the number of each element present in the compound. This chemical naming of ...

Room-temperature ionic liquids have been used in industrial processes for 15 years or more, and their applications continue to expand. For example, they are being studied by industrial scientists as ...

The development of molecular materials whose physical properties can be controlled by external stimuli — such as light, electric field, temperature, and pressure — has recently attracted much ...
