Water isn't just liquid, ice, or vapor — under extreme conditions, it can transform into exotic phases, such as the newly ...
Use this interactive solid to liquid to gas diagram to see what happens to the particles inside substances when they are heated and change state. Choose water, sodium chloride or iron and note ...
In everyday life, we typically encounter water in one of three familiar states—solid, liquid or gas. But there are in fact ...
Density describes how closely packed the particles are in a solid, liquid or gas. There is little difference between the density of a liquid and its corresponding solid (eg water and ice).
The photoelectric effect, first explained by Albert Einstein in 1905, laid the foundation for quantum mechanics. It occurs when high-energy light strikes atoms, releasing electrons. This phenomenon is ...
Understanding the behavior of tiny droplets in our cells could aid the search for new treatments. A team of Leiden ...
Combining concepts from statistical physics with machine learning, researchers at the University of Bayreuth have shown that ...
Gas transport through a metal cluster-containing crystalline solid. Hydrogen and carbon monoxide travel at different speeds due to their molecular size relative to the size of nanoscale tunnels in the ...
