In a demonstration that defies basic assumptions in physics, researchers have created liquid sodium at room temperature. As a member of the alkali metals—the first column in the periodic table—sodium ...

Researchers in South Korea have successfully demonstrated the use of free ambient air as a fuel leveraging a sodium-based solid electrolyte to tackle the carbonate issue that has been holding back the ...

These 10 – 30 second, unnarrated animations are chemically accurate representations of what's happening on the atomic level in some common chemistry outreach activities. Use them to help illustrate ...

Students will be able to explain that mixing substances can cause a chemical reaction that results in the formation of a new substance. Students will be able to plan and carry out an investigation to ...

Researchers have developed all-solid-state sodium batteries that retain performance down to subzero temperatures. Developed by researchers from the University of California, San Diego, the batteries ...

Q: How much of the sodium in a can of soup is absorbed by the solid contents and how much remains in the liquid? I would think the solid contents would absorb so much of the salt that there would be ...
