Conformational isomerism is the phenomenon in which molecules can exist in distinct spatial configurations due to rotation around single bonds. In chemistry, it is a…

Cyclopentyne, a cyclic hydrocarbon, with the chemical formula C₅H₆. It is a cycloalkyne with five carbon atoms in its ring. It is a highly reactive…

Nascent hydrogen is an antiquated idea in organic chemistry that was originally used to explain dissolving-metal reactions like the Clemmensen reduction and the Bouveault-Blanc reduction.…

When it comes to producing fuel from plants, the first step has always been the most difficult: breaking down plant materials. A new study discovers…

Metallization pressure is the amount of pressure necessary to convert a nonmetallic chemical element into a metal. It mainly refers to the pressure required to…

A cycloalkyne is a cyclic counterpart of an alkyne (−C≡C−). A cycloalkyne is a closed ring of carbon atoms with one or more triple bonds.…

Hydrogen embrittlement (HE), also known as hydrogen-assisted or hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC), is a loss in a metal’s ductility caused by absorbed hydrogen. It is a…

According to new research, the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (also known as PETM) increased oxygen levels in the tropical subsurface ocean. During this brief period in…

Cycloalkenes are a type of cycloalkane, which are cyclic hydrocarbons with at least one carbon-carbon double bond (C=C) in their ring structure. The presence of…

A Thermal Conductivity Detector (TCD) is a gas chromatography detector that detects and analyzes various components of a gas sample. It is also known as…

A hydrogen analyzer is a device that detects the concentration of hydrogen gas in a given sample. It is a gadget that measures hydrogen concentrations…

Water electrolysis is a chemical process that uses electricity to divide water molecules (H2O) into hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) gases. Electrolysis is the process…
