Liquids and solutions may look simple, but on the molecular scale they are constantly shifting and reorganizing. When sugar dissolves in water, each sugar molecule quickly becomes surrounded by fast ...

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 ...

The ice-melting substance is ubiquitous in many snowy areas. Smart salting is key to minimize its environmental impact ...

High school science misses a lot of the science researchers actually work with. For example, you learn that there are three states of matter—solid, liquid, and gas—but in advanced physics, things get ...

Researchers have discovered that not all atoms in a liquid are in motion and that some remain stationary regardless of the temperature, significantly impacting the solidification process, including ...

ABSTRACT: The development of empirical model for the hydraulic transport of sand-water mixtures is important for the design of economical solid-liquid transportation system in chemical and ...

Drying can be defined as the vaporization and removal of liquids from a solution, suspension or other solid-liquid mixture to form a dry solid. Drying occurs as a result of the vaporization of liquid ...

In everyday life, all matter exists as either a gas, liquid, or solid. In quantum mechanics, however, it is possible for two distinct states to exist simultaneously. An ultracold quantum system, for ...

Article subjects are automatically applied from the ACS Subject Taxonomy and describe the scientific concepts and themes of the article. The problem of water interaction with nonpolar hydrocarbons and ...

Sometimes, science moves forward with a spark of genius. Other times, it happens by accident—like when a graduate student shook a vial of liquid and ended up discovering a material that seems to ...
