Using atomic-scale defects in diamond, researchers in China have gained unprecedented insights into the complex chemical ...
A new paper argues that materials like wood, bacteria, and fungi belong to a newly identified class of matter, 'hydration solids.' The new findings emerged from ongoing research into the strange ...
Water is made up of H₂O molecules that are polar, meaning they have a slightly positive side and a slightly negative side. This polarity creates strong cohesion, causing water molecules to attract one ...
Liquids are more difficult to describe than gases or crystalline solids. Researchers have now mapped the potential energy surfaces of water molecules in liquid water under ambient conditions. The work ...
New study finds that the introduction of chloride ions and cations leads to a charge-by-charge arrangement, where the cations act as separators, preventing self-association of the dipyrrolyldiketone ...
