Sason Shaik is Director of the Lise Meitner Minerva Center for Computational Quantum Chemistry. In August the GDCh awarded him the August Wilhelm von Hofmann Medal in Prague. Nachrichten aus der Chemie asked him about non-mainstream ideas and what chemistry and poetry have in common....
there is no large continent hidden beneath those islands, only small continental fragments(碎片)surrounded by ancient oceanic basins. Using this theory, geologists at Utrecht University discovered that Argoland hadn't really disapp...
Today we’ll look at a simple periodic basicity trend across the periodic table and extrapolate from it some general principles for acid base reactions in organic chemistry. “Basicity” Is Just Another Word For “Stability Of A Lone Pair Of Electrons” Which Of These Acid-Base Reactions Would ...
The theory states that radioactivity is an atomic phenomenon, which occurs due to chemical changes within the atom. During this spontaneous decay, a new element, known as the daughter element, is formed with different properties from the original or parent substance. In addition to this formation...
But we tend to generalize what we gather from that unscientific daily research and make it a universal theory. So we might imagine that liars have evasive eyes or the opposite. They simply stare at you, or perhaps it is more generally nervous behavior we associate with lies. Whatever the pa...
This alphabetical chemistry dictionary offers definitions and examples of important chemistry and chemical engineering terms. For each term, a brief definition is given, and each link leads to a more comprehensive discussion of the word. From absolute alcohol, which refers to the common name for hig...
It should be, however, cautious that data from different sources is likely to have varied degree of uncertainties. A similar issue of fidelity control presents when data from different levels of theory are mixed for the computational database in the open repository. Without clarifying the fide...
According to his theory of verbal self‐regulation, speech becomes verbal thought via three stages: external, private, and internal speech. During the ‘external’ stage, the activity of the learner is directed by the verbalizations of an external agent, for example, a teacher. During the ‘...
exactly, it means to be an artist and whether AI can truly make art. "It felt bad for the exact same reason we don't let robots participate in the Olympics," one Twitter user wrote. "This is the literal defini...
The use of TAM as a foundational theoretical lens and the inclusion of new variables like awareness and trust into the model is in line with the recommendation of Lim (2018) for contributions amounting to theoretical generalizability and extension in relation to the theory. Practically, the ...
