Unstable atoms emit fast-moving particles that can damage cells in the human body. Some atoms are far more unstable than ...

Research suggests some metals’ semicore electrons may be more active on Earth’s surface than previously thought.

Scientists at the Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory are using the 88-Inch Cyclotron to help steady the famous periodic table of elements one atom at a time where it's gone a ...

Researchers have directly observed the heaviest atom yet participating in a chemical reaction and forming a molecule. The finding pushes “superheavy” chemistry, which involves extremely massive ...

The periodic table is one of the triumphs of science. Even before certain elements had been discovered, this chart could successfully predict their masses, densities, how they would link up with other ...

Known for turning science into fun, this pair also stepped into music with songs that teach in a catchy way. AsapSCIENCE, created by Mitchell Moffit and Gregory Brown, became popular for blending ...

THE “periodic” classification of the elements plays such an important part in courses of inorganic chemistry for students that a large wall diagram illustrating this classification has now become a ...

The film explains the fundamental concepts of matter, focusing on atoms and molecules. It highlights that everything in the world is made up of atoms, which combine to form molecules. There are over ...

The periodic table is part of the bedrock of chemistry education. Students use it to look up values like an element’s atomic mass, and it serves as a visual reference for the trends in physical ...

The two most promising potential element candidates are element 119, tentatively named ununennium, and element 120, aka unbinilium. These elements are so massive that they do not fit in any of the ...
