Researchers created the oddball molecule — a strange configuration of sodium-potassium with an ultralong chemical bond — at 134 nanokelvin, or just 134 billionths of a degree above absolute zero.

Hydrothermal alteration is a complex geological process that can later serve as an indicator of gold deposits for mineral explorers. The process sees hot and metal-rich fluids interact with ...

After the third energy level has 8 electrons, the next electron goes into the fourth level. 4th Period: Potassium and Calcium—Electrons go into the fourth energy level. A small piece of sodium metal ...

Hydrogen peroxide decomposes on its own into water and oxygen gas. This process is sped up by a catalyst. In this reaction, the catalyst is potassium permanganate, and the bubbles are full of oxygen ...
