So why do so many life-forms breathe oxygen? There are probably thousands of kinds of metabolisms, or chemical processes that ...

while the other gains electrons (reduction). Metalloenzymes play essential roles in biology but controlling outer-sphere interactions to influence their functions remains a significant challenge.

This work provides valuable insights into the design of efficient heterojunctions for photocatalytic CO₂ reduction.

A reduction in the cost of solar panels also led to a surge ... it inadvertently lead to an environment where the price of electrons during peak solar hours reduced considerably. The phenomenon is ...

Nitrogen gas (N 2) is one of the most abundant yet highly stable gases in the Earth's atmosphere. Its N≡N triple bond has an extremely high bond dissociation energy (~940.95 kJ mol⁻¹), making ...

Two twisted boron nitride layers (blue and pink) create a crystal lattice at a distance in which electrons (gold) can arrange themselves in a regular pattern. Credit: Natasha Kiper / ETH Zurich ...

But the new study is the first to show, with high statistical confidence, that this recovery is due primarily to the reduction of ozone-depleting substances, versus other influences such as ...

The kinetics and thermodynamics of elementary reaction steps involved in the catalytic reduction of protons to hydrogen define ... be further differentiated by the sites at which protons and electrons ...

India has witnessed a sharp reduction in poverty and inequality over the past decade, according to a new study by economists Surjit S Bhalla and Karan Bhasin. The study, based on government ...
