Synthesis and Reactivity in Inorganic, Metal-Organic, and Nano-Metal Chemistry is devoted to the rapid dissemination of original research papers of relevance to inorganic and metal-organic chemists ...

When a chunk of alkali metal gets tossed into water, it explodes. But when a team of scientists gently placed a liquid drop of a sodium-potassium alloy on top of a water surface, they observed a ...

In order to determine the relative reactivity of each metal we will carry out displacement reactions by reacting each metal with a solution of another metal ion. If the metal is more reactive than the ...

Research team from Giessen, the USA and Canada develops a route to elucidate the microstructure of electrochemically grown lithium and sodium metal – control of the microstructure crucial for ...

For decades, science enthusiasts have delighted at the famously energetic way sodium and potassium explode on contact with water. Researchers in Europe now show that the long-accepted explanation for ...
