Nuclear energy has been a subject of intense debate for several decades. While some say it could power the future, scientists and activists have expressed serious concern about safety issues and ...

Footage shows the stunning moment a dynamic colour shift from an iodine clock reaction was captured in China. University students conducted a chemical kinetics experiment by adding three distinct ...

THE blue colour which appears when iodine reacts with oleum has been discussed in terms of the formation of the iodine cation, I + (refs. 1, 2). Recently 3, evidence purporting to show that iodine ...

The most eye-catching thing about iodine sublimation is the bright purple color of the vapor ... camera of his students’ freshly deposited crystals under a microscope at 40× zoom.

These crystals, which are based on a groundbreaking discovery made by the team in 2015, are capable of capturing iodine — one of the most common radioactive fission products — in aqueous and ...

The dependence of the colour of iodine solutions upon the nature of the solvent is generally believed to be due to the presence of loosely bound iodine-solvent complexes, or ‘solvates’, in the ...
