Chemists synthesize ocean-based molecule that could fight Parkinson's In producing lissodendoric acid A, the team used a method they say may help accelerate the process of drug discovery ...

It is ≈1000 times stronger than pure sulfuric acid, which puts it in the class of superacids. It can protonate and dissolve almost all organic compounds and has several industrial uses, including ...

Acids come in all molecular shapes and sizes, but they have one thing in common. When you add an acid to water, the acid molecule can lose the positive nucleus of a hydrogen atom (a hydrogen ion ...

Some references claim that the red color is due to molecular bromine which could be produced via the following two steps: Br–(aq) + BrO3–(aq) + 2H+(aq) + 4 Mn(II) → ... However, other detailed studies ...
