Practically all of the ocean floor remains a mystery to humans, but robotic floats may soon change that shortcoming. In a ...

Scientists have found a new way to detect subtle chemical signatures in seawater, revealing previously invisible details ...

The Earth's deep interior may absorb more chemical oxygen than previously thought, revealing a new geological process ...

Earth may have won a cosmic chemistry lottery. Researchers found that during the planet’s earliest formation, oxygen had to be in an extremely narrow “Goldilocks zone” for two life-essential elements, ...

I think about oxygen a lot more than I used to. This is because I am studying a chemical defense that turns ordinary oxygen, the same old stuff we obtain from breathing air – the same stuff that is ...

The aim of the book “Oxygen atom transfer reactions” is to outline some recent developments in the studies of oxygen atom transfer mechanisms in catalytic oxidation reactions based on several ...

The people at the Smithsonian Institution National Museum of Natural History were nice enough to give a couple members of the Chemistry in Pictures team a behind-the-scenes look at their mineral ...

Trivalent titanium occurs only when the amount of oxygen available for chemical reactions is low. Thus, the abundance of ...
