Catalysts spur chemical reactions used across industries, from producing fuels and medicines to manufacturing chemicals and ...

Oscillatory chemical reactions are systems in which concentrations of reactants or products undergo sustained, periodic changes over time. These phenomena arise from the interplay of autocatalytic ...

Chemical predictions can help prevent unwanted reactions or improve the efficacy of industrial processes, among other ...

Although yeast has been used for thousands of years, its true nature has been known only for the last two centuries. Yeasts are single-celled fungi. About 1,000 species are recognized, but the most ...

Chemists at Yokohama National University combined competition experiments, 3D electronic data and machine learning to predict ...

“THE inability to balance a chemical equation is a most common difficulty to students of chemistry.” The author has attempted to remedy this very common weakness, and in addition to a concise ...

Scientists used artificial intelligence to uncover nearly 10,000 chemical reactions involved in transforming carbon dioxide ...

Computational Chemistry is the study of complex chemical problems using a combination of computer simulations, chemistry theory and information science. Also called cheminformatics, this field enables ...

So far, we have talked about chemical reactions in terms of individual atoms and molecules. Although this works, most of the reactions occurring around us involve much larger amounts of chemicals.

Chemists routinely optimize reactions to maximize the yield of their desired products, but understanding why those reactions work can require laborious experiments that track reactions through time.

Researchers discovered a hidden factor that can determine whether chemical reactions succeed or fail, and then used it to boost the proportion of the desired product from 16% to 97%. By controlling ...
