Gas-phase basicity, defined by the propensity of a molecule to accept a proton in the absence of solvation, is a critical parameter in understanding the intrinsic reactivity of compounds. Organic ...

The strongly basic sites on BaTiO 3−x N y catalysts are attributed to the presence of surface nitride ions and oxygen vacancies. Basic oxide catalysts contain oxygen ions with unpaired electrons that ...

The pH scale that is widely accepted and used by scientists didn't actually exist until 1909. Before then scientists had to rely on using adjectives to describe the acidity or basicity of a substance ...
