A heroic effort to characterize the chemistry of actinium, a short-lived radioactive element, reveals surprising differences in behaviour compared with other elements in the actinide series. Like all ...

Zinc (Zn) isotope fractionation by the coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi (a Tasman Sea isolate) was investigated by culturing it across a range of free Zn2+ ion concentrations (1.2 pmol L−1 to 3.2 ...

Solid state batteries are still not very fast and powerful. One reason is that Lithium ions may find it difficult to cross the solid electrolyte separator. Now a study with neutrons shows for the ...

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 ...

When a cargo ship carrying fertilizer sank into the Red Sea on March 2, reporters sought out expert insight from none other than Xingchen Wang, professor of earth and environmental sciences at Boston ...

Just a few hundred feet from where we are sitting is a large metal chamber devoid of air and draped with the wires needed to control the instruments inside. A beam of particles passes through the ...

Isotopes, balancing equations, cracking crude oil - there's quite a lot that could come up in your Chemistry exams. We can help with that though! Here are some guides that might help with your ...
