Very happy to share our new paper in Chemical Science @chemicalscience.rsc.org

Great work by Yuri Damen (now at BioChem in Oss), @joresfu.bsky.social, Judith Firet, and Han Zuilhof @w-u-r.bsky.social

Especially for those of you who use strained alkynes in their click reactions!

Scientists discover how to destroy Teflon and other persistent pollutants at room temperature An international team including a researcher from the University of Valencia has developed a system capable of degrading both Teflon (PTFE) and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), known as “forever chem...

Infographic on the mole. One mole is the amount of substance that contains exactly 6.022 x 10^23 atoms, molecules or ions. This number is also known as Avogadro's number. Using moles makes it easier to talk about amounts of substances involved in reactions by relating the mass of a substance to its atomic or molecular mass. Amount of substance (moles) = mass (grams) divided by the mass of 1 mole (grams per mole). One mole contains a different mass for different substances.

I'm a bit late with the customary #MoleDay infographic this year, but better late than never!

The mole makes it easier to describe the huge numbers of atoms, molecules, or ions that participate in chemical reactions.
