Based on the pre-lab answers and your understanding of the factors affecting reaction rates, you should be able to predict the expected outcomes of the experiment. For example, if you are ...

Researchers have helped minimize the cost of an important class of chemical transformations: converting nitriles into primary amines. Their experimental protocol uses a cheap nickel catalyst instead ...

Note: This video is designed to help the teacher better understand the lesson and is NOT intended to be shown to students. It includes observations and conclusions that students are meant to make on ...

Predicting the major product of a chemical reaction is a cornerstone skill in organic chemistry. It requires a deep ...

Chemists at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have found a new use for deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), not just as genetic material, but as a tool for more efficient production of medicinal ...

A single cerium catalyst has been shown to drive two distinct reactions in one pot, enabling efficient, redox-adaptive chemical synthesis and paving the way for greener, tandem manufacturing processes ...

Most of the drugs, plastics, and industrial materials widely used today are produced through chemical reactions. In general, most high-performance and sophisticated substances have complex structures, ...

Researchers developed an FePPc nanotube catalyst that renews active sites during oxygen reduction, boosting stability and performance in clean energy applications. The new catalyst was made by forming ...

Hydrogen peroxide decomposes on its own into water and oxygen gas. This process is sped up by a catalyst. In this reaction, the catalyst is potassium permanganate, and the bubbles are full of oxygen ...
