A copper penny is heated and suspended above the surface of acetone in a beaker. The copper demonstrates heterogenous catalysis in the combustion of acetone to carbon dioxide and water. This exotherm ...

Catalysis of the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide is demonstrated in a foil-covered florence flask or fancy bottle. A packet of manganese dioxide catalyst is suspended by a thread inside the neck of ...

This course will focus on protein dynamics where students will gain facility with thermodynamics of protein folding/misfolding, catalysis, kinetics and binding equilibria as they apply to proteins and ...

Other active research deals with the fundamental chemical processes that occur at mineral surfaces during water-rock interaction - adsorption, catalysis, kinetics of growth and dissolution, and ...

catalysis, energy storage, and biomedicine. Therefore, significant efforts have been devoted to investigate the mechanisms ...

The scientists' data indicate that a hydride is formed at the iron center during catalysis. The new method also made it possible to study the binding kinetics. Due to its high sensitivity ...
