FROM a recent discussion with J. H. Baxendale and P. George, we understand that they have from kinetic studies proposed a reaction scheme for the mechanism of the evolution of oxygen from hydrogen ...

The question of whether water can form hydrogen peroxide should be answered by thermodynamics (see C&EN, June 13, 2022, page 3). If a reaction is possible (spontaneous), then the change in the Gibbs ...

Some chemical reactions change temperature, change color, produce a gas, or make a solid from two liquids. Try this reaction and see what it does! Pour 1 tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide into a cup.

Chemical reactions involve the interaction and transformation of molecules. The Maillard reaction is one example that occurs in baked goods, where sugars react with proteins to create new molecules ...
