The picture shows a close-up of one carbon atom. A hydrogen atom has one proton as the nucleus and one electron ... When the plastic strip is rubbed on the skin, electrons from the skin are ...

NC State researchers reveal a tincone thin film with improved stability and electrochemical properties, paving the way for ...

The atoms form a double bond because there is a strong enough attraction in both directions and room for the electrons in the outer energy level of the atoms. The carbon atom and hydrogen atoms are ...

The ancient reactions an MIT chemist is investigating could provide the key to developing new methods that can extract vast amounts of carbon from our atmosphere.

Normally, a carbon atom shares all four of its valence electrons to create four bonds with other atoms (tetravalent carbon). When fewer bonds are formed, unusual compounds such as carbenes are ...
