In the reaction, the bonds in the methane and oxygen molecule come apart, the atoms rearrange and then re-bond to form water and carbon dioxide. The little number written at the lower right after an ...

Chemical reactions make new chemicals. Atoms are rearranged during a chemical reaction, but the number of atoms does not change. Evidence of chemical reactions includes a large temperature change ...

Iron oxide, aluminum, and a catalyst are placed in a flowerpot. The reaction is extremely exothermic resulting in molten iron and aluminum dripping into sand below the flowerpot. The demonstration ...

The Chem-E-Car competition races cars which are only powered by chemical reactions. The goal is to come up with an elegant solution – you can’t simply jettison matter out the back as the ...

This method has now been used to reveal the ultrafast dynamics of electrons and nuclear interactions during a chemical reaction.

Achieving control over chemical reactions with multiple outcomes, however, has remained elusive. This matters because generally only some outcomes of a chemical reaction are useful. For instance ...

A team of international researchers including those from the University of Adelaide have taken a well-known chemical reaction ...

Within these plumes are minerals called iron sulfides, which scientists believe could have helped trigger early chemical reactions that created life. These same minerals are also found in hot ...
