Metals react differently. Some are very reactive and others are unreactive. Observations of reactions can be used to put metals into an order of reactivity. For example, copper is unreactive so it can ...

Scientists have discovered that physically confined spaces can make for more efficient chemical reactions. Physically confined spaces can make for more efficient chemical reactions, according to ...

In a paper published in the journal Chemistry of Materials, the scientists explain that metal electrolysis is a process in which a metal oxide, the ore, is zapped with electricity to create pure metal ...

Using a one-step sintering method, researchers introduced high-valence metal doping and defect engineering to construct the amorphous iridium oxide. This strategy reduced the energy barrier of the ...

Platinum, one of the rarest and most expensive metals on Earth, may soon find itself out of a job. Known for its allure in engagement rings, platinum is also treasured for its ability to jump-start ...

There are 118 elements known at present. There are similarities as well as differences are the properties of these elements on the basis of their, all the element can be divided three types: Metal; ...

ITHACA, N.Y. - A nitrogen doped carbon-coated nickel anode can catalyze an essential reaction in hydrogen fuel cells at a fraction of the cost of the precious metals currently used, Cornell University ...
