Jan. 17 (UPI) --Everything depends on chemical bonds. Without chemical bonds, everything would fall apart. And yet, scientists don't entirely understand how chemical bonding works. Now, for the first ...

NO SCHOOL chemistry textbook is complete without a detailed enumeration of the basic types of chemical bond: covalent, ionic and metallic. And for good reason, because bonds are the glue that binds ...

Scientists report the direct observation of the birthing moment of chemical bonds by tracking real-time atomic positions in the molecule. They captured the ongoing reaction process of the chemical ...

Scientists have managed to successfully make a transuranium complex where the central metal, here neptunium, forms a multiple bond to just one other element. Enabling study of such a bonding ...

Chemistry students the world over are familiar with covalent bonds and hydrogen bonds. Now a study has revealed a strange variety of bond that acts like a hybrid of the two. Its properties raise ...

“In this work, a comprehensive study on crystal structure and chemical bonding properties of CrB 2 was conducted using a combinatorial of theoretical calculations and experimental validations.

A group of researchers at the University of Tokyo have spent years testing the limits of chemical bonds. And now, after years of work, they've finally explored an idea originally proposed in 1931: a ...

Electronegativity, an essential characteristic of all elements in the periodic table, measures an atom's ability to attract electrons towards itself within a chemical bond. This vital theoretical ...
