NASA has discovered Saturn's moon Titan can mix molecules in ways previously thought impossible, shedding light on origins-of ...

Chemists have found that the all-cis isomer of hexafluorocyclohexane, a molecule that made headlines last year for being the most polar aliphatic compound known, is capable of binding both cations and ...

When a charged object such as a rubber balloon is brought close to a fine stream of a polar liquid, the stream is attracted toward the electrical charge. If the same charged object is brought close to ...

THERE is an increasing tendency on the part of organic chemists to apply the Berzelius dualistic theory, in a modified form, to organic compounds. In many theories of valency, individual groups are ...

Chemists have made the all-cis isomer of 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexafluorocyclohexane, a crystalline ring molecule with all six fluorines pointing “up” and all six hydrogens pointing “down.” This compound is ...

Impossible molecular combinations are possible on Saturn’s moon Titan, changing our understanding the potentially ...

Titan, with its thick nitrogen and methane atmosphere and bizarre orange-hued landscape of lakes and dunes, closely resembles ...
