Research into gas-phase Brønsted acids has yielded profound insights into proton donation processes devoid of solvation effects, allowing chemists to probe intrinsic acid strengths. This field ...

York University chemists have invented a new fluorescence-based method for accurately determining the strength of a range of Lewis acids, which could one day be used to help purify pharmaceutical ...

Researchers at the University of California, Riverside have discovered the world's strongest acid. Remarkably it is also the gentlest acid. This non-toxic and non-corrosive acid may have a role in ...

a dilute solution contains a relatively small amount of dissolved solute in a given volume a concentrated solution contains a relatively large amount of dissolved solute in a given volume Take care to ...
