Explore 25 chemical reactions that broke reality, challenging science and reshaping our understanding of the universe.

Researchers have discovered that common chemical reactions accelerate Brownian diffusion by sending long-range ripples into the surrounding solvent. Steve Granick, Director of the IBS Center for Soft ...

Scientists have observed so-called roaming chemical reactions, those that at certain points move away from the lowest minimum energy path of least resistance, in highly excited energy states for the ...

If you follow the directions in a cake recipe, you expect to end up with a nice fluffy cake. In Idaho Falls, though, the elevation can affect these results. When baked goods don’t turn out as expected ...

It’s fun to watch chemistry labs explode on video, but you know what’s even more fun? Watching a chemistry experiment in action, with a good explanation of what’s going on. That’s science at its most ...

Basics of Chemistry is a new miniseries from the American Chemical Society about the basics of Chemistry. In this episode we're talking isotopes, what are they and why are they important? Head on over ...

Experts have created a self-sustaining circuit of reactions which is a greener and more efficient method of chemical production. They produce chemicals more efficiently through a looped set of ...

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, ...
