Sentences with phrase «types of chemical bond»

Using the same technique, a few years later they succeeded in distinguishing different types of chemical bond between carbon atoms in a hydrocarbon molecule.

The samples ranged from a simple alcohol to a complex plant hormone, and the new method, dubbed «CAL» for covalent alignment (the molecules form a type of chemical bond known as a covalent bond in the MOFs), enables researchers to determine the complete structure of a molecule from a single MOF crystal that contains the sample molecules in its pores.

It also has a similar structure to some other organic weak bases that have been used to catalyze the type of chemical reaction needed to form these gels — the formation of ester bonds to create a polyester.

The wavelengths of the absorbed light reveal how the target molecule's chemical bonds vibrate, which in turn tells about the types and positions of atoms in the molecule, the kinds and strength of bonds among atoms and the symmetry of the molecule, Milo says.

In a hair strand, the keratin molecules are mainly held together by two forces: chemical cross-links between cysteines (a type of amino acid) and weaker hydrogen bonds.

Analysis of phase - change materials showed that they work because of a particular kind of chemical bonding, called resonant bonding — a type of bond in which electrons flip back and forth between several adjacent atoms.

However, the strength of the carbon - fluorine bond makes it difficult to remove and replace fluorine atoms in a molecule, greatly limiting the structures and types of chemicals that can be made.

Materials chemists have been trying for years to make a new type of battery that can store solar or other light - sourced energy in chemical bonds rather than electrons, one that will release the energy on demand as heat instead of electricity — addressing the need for long - term, stable, efficient storage of solar power.

The high reactivity of some lysine sites also means that certain chemical compounds can make a certain type of extra-tight, effectively irreversible bond with them, known as a covalent bond.

This type of cooperative chemical communication, in which a molecule binding at one site influences chemical activity at another site on the enzyme, is driven by structural and bonding changes and affects the function of the biocatalysts.

Therefore, the energy used in anabolism will remain «stored» inside our bodies within the chemical bonds of the molecules that have been synthesized, regardless of whether they are muscle, fat, bone, or any other type of molecules.

The bond that occurs between the second and third type of phosphates is that a great deal of energy is stored, and this can be used to trigger chemical reactions.

Students also explore atomic structure, periodic laws, types of bonding, chemical reactions, and stoichiometry.
