Chemists have tracked with unprecedented spatial resolution how individual water molecules attach to an organic molecule. They used low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy to visualize the ...

A team of chemists and physicists at Aarhus University, in Denmark, working with a colleague from Universitat de Barcelona, in Spain, has recorded atom-by-atom solvation for the first time. In their ...

Scientists from the Fritz Haber Institute, Sorbonne University, and Uppsala University have made a groundbreaking discovery that can help to improve our understanding of the behavior of ions in ...

In a world first, researchers have recorded exactly how solvents interact with dissolved materials, one atom at a time. After a solute, such as salt, dissolves in a solvent, such as water, the two ...

Researchers analyzed the effects of solvation and ion valency on metallopolymers, with implications for critical materials recovery and recycling, and environmental remediation. In a new paper ...

Under the direction of Professor Wei Chen from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the Chinese Academy of Science (CAS), researchers have demonstrated the critical role that ...

Chemistry can be quite confusing. In order for the desired substance to be produced in a reaction or for two substances to interact - or not - chemists have to take into account a number of factors.
