The film explores the concept of solutions in chemistry, defining key terms such as solute and solvent. It illustrates how solute particles dissolve and disperse uniformly in a solvent, highlighting ...

A trip to the seaside is always fun - even in winter! But it does get a bit nippy and we need to warm up. A mug of hot chocolate! That'll do the trick and it'll help us understand solutions. Solutions ...

Science presenter Jon Chase demonstrates that a large piece of expanded polystyrene will dissolve in a very small volume of propanone. He defines the terms solute, solvent and solution. By dissolving ...

Choosing a solvent for a particular reaction is often a matter of personal preference or the result of limited screening. Now, a computational method allows identification of a solvent that will ...

In the gaseous phase, vibrational-, rotational- and translational-energy transfer between small molecules can be observed experimentally from time-dependent optical spectra. Populations in the ...
