A team has reported the first demonstration of selective electrochemical separation driven by halogen bonding. This was achieved by engineering a polymer that modulates the charge density on a halogen ...

Research suggests some metals’ semicore electrons may be more active on Earth’s surface than previously thought.

You probably learned in high school chemistry class that core electrons don't participate in chemical bonding.They're thought to be ...

In 1825 Michael Faraday isolated a sweet-smelling chemical that he dubbed bi-carburet of hydrogen. That molecule, better known as benzene, is perhaps the most famous molecular ring in chemistry. Back ...
