A team of scientists at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) has developed a machine-learning model to gain an atomic-level understanding of CO2 capture in amine-based sorbents. This ...

A new reagent has moved carbon-atom transfer out of the chemical flatlands, allowing chemists to place a single carbon atom so that it makes bonds to four different substituents. The reagent makes ...

Use the animation to show students a ball model of a carbon dioxide molecule (CO 2) and post the carbon dioxide molecule card. Explain that a carbon dioxide molecule has 1 carbon atom and 2 oxygen ...

ORNL researchers performing basic research have discovered a carbon nanotube-based system that functions like an atom-scale switch. Their approach is to perform first-principles calculations on ...

Researchers have used single carbon atom doping to form four chemical bonds in one step. Gamma-lactams (cyclic molecules that are common in antibiotics) were easily synthetically accessible from ...

Typically hydrogen transfer and borrowing-hydrogen reactions rely on metal catalysts, with few exceptions. Here, the authors show that carbon-based materials are capable of carrying out alcohol ...

The goal of the activity is to build a carbon atom out of elementary particles (up quarks, down quarks, and electrons). On the left side of the activity's window sits the particle dispenser ...

An Atom. With wings. And carbon. New entry level model? Arf. More re-entry level than entry level. There is a feeling with fast Atoms that the only people really capable of operating them are ...

Sheets of carbon a single atom thick can be wrinkled to create functional microchips. This nano-origami technique could lead to smaller and faster computer processors. Manoj Tripathi at the ...
