When building an atom, pay close attention to the particles' electrical charges. Protons have a charge of +1. Electrons have a charge of -1. Neutrons are neutral, as its name implies. A stable atom ...

Chemists have achieved a new feat in the realm of chemical design and synthesis: They've helped create the first example of a synthetic molecule, with an asymmetric oxygen atom as its centerpiece, ...

Researchers develop a simple method to build stable, atom-thick metal layers using tiny defects in carbon, enabling efficient use of metals across technologies. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Using metals in ...
