The reaction starts less than a millisecond after the metal droplet, released from a syringe, enters the water. After just 0.4 ms, ‘spikes’ of metal shoot out from the droplet, too fast to be ...
Watch the Reaction This video from Foresti's research shows a reaction between a particle of metal sodium and a water droplet. The two particles start off separately and slowly move toward one ...
The reaction starts less than a millisecond after the metal droplet, released from a syringe, enters the water. After just 0.4 ms, ‘spikes’ of metal shoot out from the droplet, too fast to be ...
This explains the continued robust reaction: the spikes kept placing fresh sodium in contact with the water, preventing the formation of a steam/hydrogen barrier that would choke off the reaction.

Supercomputer simulations show how to speed up chemical reaction rates at air-water interface - MSNThe team's simulations indicate that chemical reactions involving water and air could be sped up by drawing the interacting molecules out of the water's bulk environment (meaning, deep into the ...
At the air-water interface, a negatively charged amino acid carries out a nucleophile attack on a gas molecule to convert it into a product. The reaction rate is enhanced due to significant ...
