An electron is transferred from sodium to chlorine. Sodium becomes a positive ion and chlorine becomes a negative ion. The positive and negative ions attract each other and form the ionic compound ...

Join two experts working on advances in polymer technology for use in the next generation of ion transport systems. First, Alexei Sokolov, ORNL/UT Governor’s Chair and Professor of Chemistry and ...

The pioneering nuclear chemist Glenn Seaborg discovered berkelium at Berkeley Lab in 1949. It was one of many achievements ...

In this video, Fran Scott demonstrates how to test for various ions and interpret the results. Flame tests and chemical tests are used to detect and identify ions in samples. Instrumental methods ...

The interplay between the intimate coordination chemistry of each family of sites and the changing metabolic needs of the cell may well prove to be a key to unlocking the roles of metal ions in ...

Complementary hydrogen bonding interactions guide the molecules to form ribbon-type assembly in phospholipids, where the hanged crown-ether rings can be arranged into channels to transport ions ...

Their findings were published online in Chemistry of Materials on February 2, 2025. Since Rb + is one of the largest cations (second only to the cesium ion), crystalline Rb-containing oxides are ...

In this study, researchers successfully triggered a Coulomb explosion of C 4 H 4 N 2 molecules by using the 112.5 eV/u C 5+ ion beam at the Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou (HIRFL).
