For the first time, Northwestern University scientists have watched water molecules in real-time as they prepared to give up electrons to form oxygen. In the crucial moment before producing oxygen, ...

Water behaves in remarkable ways when heated and pressurized beyond its critical point. Under these extreme conditions, known as supercritical water, it no longer acts like an ordinary liquid. Instead ...

The movement of protons through electrically charged water is one of the most fundamental processes in chemistry. It is evident in everything from eyesight to energy storage to rocket fuel — and ...

Water trapped inside tiny molecular cavities behaves in a surprisingly energetic way, pushing outward like people crammed in an elevator. When a new molecule enters these narrow spaces, the confined ...

Green hydrogen is one of the cleanest fuels known, and it has the capacity to decarbonize industries, power vehicles, and more for a sustainable future. Scientists have now announced the development ...

NASA scientists have discovered water molecules in the polar regions of the moon. Instruments aboard three separate spacecraft revealed water molecules in amounts that are greater than predicted, but ...

They’re called comb jellies though they’re not jellyfish. And they are beautiful when exposed to the light. But where some of them live, 8,000 meters beneath the sea, there is no light and they have ...

A team of researchers at the Departments of Physical Chemistry and Organic Chemistry of the University of Malaga and The Biomimetic Dendrimers and Photonic Laboratory of the research institute IBIMA ...

The Outside Story shows how needle-thin columns of ice protruding from the ground are formed from the liquid between soil particles.
