Sodium vs. Dry Water

This experiment tests the reaction between sodium metal and dry water, revealing dramatic chemical behavior and the science behind reactive materials.
Researchers from the Freunberger group at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) have unveiled pivotal insights into the redox chemistry of oxygen and reactive oxygen species (ROS).
Steel has underpinned modern life for centuries, but it comes at an expensive cost. The industry is responsible for nearly 7 percent of the world’s total carbon dioxide emissions, driven by blast ...
Complex organic molecules that form part of the chain of chemical reactions that can result in life's building blocks have been found in the watery geysers of Enceladus, almost twenty years after the ...
For nearly two decades Enceladus, a 500-kilometer-wide moon of Saturn, has been a top target in the hunt for extraterrestrial life. In 2005, shortly after arriving in orbit around the ringed planet, ...
Meeting global energy demands while mitigating environmental harm remains a major challenge, as many current solutions rely on expensive and toxic noble metals. In a recent study, researchers from ...
Scientists at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) put singlet oxygen on a leash. Their work, published in Nature, could have broad applications, including in energy storage ...
America’s water systems are aging and vulnerable to corrosion. Induron’s BOAR model offers a simple, chemistry-driven way to specify coatings that protect treatment plant assets, cut costs, and extend ...
