Ion mobility separation is a highly robust method used for separating isomeric or isobaric compounds. Particularly in tandem with high-resolution accurate mass spectrometry, ion mobility separation ...

An Ionic bond is formed when one of the atoms can donate electrons to achieve the inert gas electron configuration and the other atom needs electrons to achieve the inert gas electron configuration.

Listen to the full series on BBC Sounds. Ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points, so they are in the solid state at room temperature. See the study guide on the three states of matter to ...

Anle138b, a small molecular compound has shown promise in restoring brain function and memory in experimental models of Alzheimer’s disease. The molecule mainly stops the toxic ion flow in the brain, ...

Although lithium ion batteries have seen some significant improvements over the last few years, they still have a number of weaknesses, including fragility, sensitivity to operating temperatures, ...

When you rinse with a menthol-flavored mouthwash, your mouth tingles because the compound triggers a cold-sensitive ion channel in sensory neurons in your mouth. Now scientists have found a new ...
