Liquids and solutions may seem simple, but at the molecular level they are constantly in motion. When sugar dissolves in water, for example, each ...

Scientists have found a way to see ultrafast molecular interactions inside liquids using an extreme laser technique once ...

A 3:1 mixture of ethyl acetate and ethanol, for example, can be an effective replacement for DCM in some column chromatography applications, but may not be an effective “catch-all” extraction solvent ...

Two solvation models are available in NWChem: COSMO and SMD. Since some of the COSMO parameters are used for SMD, we suggest to read the COSMO section before the SMD one. COSMO is the continuum ...

Universitat de Barcelona researchers have developed a new method for characterizing solute-solvent interactions in electrokinetic systems. Biomimetic chromatography can be a demanding process for ...

A new theory challenges traditional understanding of crystallization, revealing that the solvent, rather than the solute, plays the primary role in crystal formation. Credit: SciTechDaily.com A new ...

A recent theory challenges conventional understanding of crystallization. It shows that the dominant element in a solution—the solvent, not the solute—is the material that crystallizes. This finding, ...

Remember that old high school chemistry experiment where salt crystals precipitate out of a saltwater solution – or maybe the one where rock candy crystals form from sugar water? It turns out that ...
