Not that this would be easy, since we’re talking about chemical bonds being broken. But there are chemistry sites, such as this one, that explain how, indeed, ethanol can be “dehydrated” by ...

Chemistry students the world over are familiar with covalent bonds and hydrogen bonds. Now a study has revealed a strange variety of bond that acts like a hybrid of the two. Its properties raise ...

And now, after years of work, they’ve finally explored an idea originally proposed in 1931: a chemical bond formed using just a single electron. This, of course, ...

The new bonds had a strength of 45.8 kilocalories per mol (a unit of chemical bonding energy), greater than some covalent bonds. Nitrogen molecules, for example, ...

Different chemical bonds in hexabenzocoronene revealed for the first time Sharing more leads to tighter bonds – even in the world of molecules. The most detailed images yet made of the chemical ...

New chemical structures built on unreactive bonds Date: July 27, 2017 Source: Osaka University Summary: Organic chemists have transformed strong carbon fluorine bonds into crowded quaternary ...

These strong chemical bonds help PFAS resist degradation. We published this work in Nature in November 2024, and we hope this technique could help address the widespread contamination these substances ...
