Carbon dioxide is made up of one carbon atom covalently bonded to two oxygen atoms. Although electrons are shared, they are not shared equally between the carbon and the oxygen atoms. The oxygen atom ...

Carbon dioxide dissolves in (and reacts with) water, forming carbonic acid. As this acid forms, it breaks down (dissociates) into a hydrogen ion and a bicarbonate ion. The hydrogen ion (produced when ...

Solubility of gases: Carbon dioxide is a gas that dissolves in water, and its concentration increases with pressure Nucleation sites: Rough surfaces provide sites for gas bubbles to form, so the gas ...

Engineering researchers have developed carbon capture systems that use molecules called quinones, dissolved in water, as their capturing compounds. A new study provides critical insights into the ...

New research suggests fizzy water might help weight loss by boosting the blood sugar uptake and metabolism, which is the rate ...

Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have characterized the atmosphere of a hot super-Neptune exoplanet designated WASP-166 b. As a result, they found that the atmosphere of this ...

Following two months of record heat and precipitation in fall 2022, an estimated 7,500 lakes in West Greenland turned brown, began emitting carbon and decreased in water quality in less than a year.

Smaller ions in liquids with high saline contents can improve efficiency in the transformation of carbon dioxide into ...

As reported by phys.org, the JWST employed its Near Infrared Imager and Slitless Spectrograph (NIRISS) and Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) to study WASP-166 b's atmosphere. These observations ...
