The terms reaction rate, chemical kinetics, and effective collisions are defined. Reaction Rates: The terms reaction rate, chemical kinetics, and effective collisions are defined. Students learn the ...

At the air-water interface, a negatively charged amino acid carries out a nucleophile attack on a gas molecule to convert it into a product. The reaction rate is enhanced due to significant reduction ...

A study published this week in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) provides new information about the rates at which three of the most powerful greenhouse gases are ...

Reaction kinetics and dynamics underpin our fundamental understanding of chemical transformation processes, describing how and at what rate reactants are converted into products. At the core, reaction ...

Electrospray ionization (ESI) is best known as a way to introduce chemical compounds and mixtures into mass spectrometers. The machines apply a voltage to a stream of liquid containing a sample, ...

Ultracold reactions: shadows of atoms trapped in layers of an optical lattice, before they are paired into ultracold potassium-rubidium molecules. (Courtesy: Ye Group/JILA) A new technique to cool ...

Researchers in Belgium have unveiled a striking chemical reaction in which ripples along a frozen reaction front resemble the ...

Note: This demo has two parts, I & II. When ordering, please specify whether you want Part I, Part II, or both at the same time. I. The reaction between iodate and bisulfite in acid medium produces ...

A hot gas dissociates very quickly, on the order of microseconds. One might think we could neglect the speed of dissociation, then, and model the gas in an equilibrium state. However, many things ...
