Atom by atom, bond by bond, a chemical reaction caught in the act

June 1, 2013 – 8:01 am
  • Atom by atom, bond by bond, a chemical reaction caught in the act - Scientists have produced remarkable images of carbon atoms and the bonds among them. Resembling glowing textbook diagrams, hydrocarbon molecules are shown in high resolution for the first time before and after bond-breaking, rearrangement, and reforming of bonds during a complex chemical reaction.(10.1126/science.1238187)
