Each year, 160 U.S. homes experience Christmas tree fires. They are hot, fast, dangerous — and preventable. In this video, the ACS Reactions team tests different Christmas tree watering conditions, ...

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 ...

This module covers aldehydes and ketones as the substrates and products of redox reactions. Structure is explained with both Lewis structures and molecular orbitals to discuss mechanisms in the ...

Coacervates can bring subsets of molecules together, modulate their activity, and direct their interactions, thereby altering chemical reactions and assemblies. In return, chemistry can control ...

Mechanochemical reactions may also progress more quickly than conventional reactions, increasing efficiency. All this to say, mechanochemistry is not in itself a simple solution to all our problems, ...

An Indian ed-tech physics teacher's innovative method of teaching chirality in chemistry has gone viral. Using his body to ...

Much of organic chemistry is about understanding a variety of chemical reactions that take place between different organic molecules and knowing what product is formed when specific compounds react.
