Stoichiometry is the branch of chemistry that deals with the quantitative relationships between reactants and products in ...

1. The National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in the UK and the University of Oxford in the UK have experimentally confirmed that a cupric oxide exhibits ...

Copper (II) oxide is a higher oxide of copper and belongs to the monoclinic crystal system. It occurs as a black solid with an ionic structure that melts above 1200°C with some loss of oxygen. It is ...

For solar energy to become environmentally friendly and cost effective, the two main components of 'heterojunction' solar cells ― the n- and p-type layers ― need to be fabricated from nontoxic, ...

Researchers have provided the first evidence that engineered nanoparticles are able to accumulate within plants and damage their DNA. Under laboratory conditions, cupric oxide nanoparticles have the ...

A study on how oxides and gases interact suggests looking at these interactions to find ways to produce better catalysts, improved batteries, longer-lasting vehicles and other higher-quality products.

WE report here work in progress on the measurement of the solubility of metals and metal oxides in pure water, in the temperature range 50°–550° C and at pressures up to 400 bars. The isobaric ...
