The very first life on earth is thought to have developed from 'protocells' -- liquid mixtures of many different types of molecules. Researchers have now shown that in such mixtures, small imbalances ...

A team of physicists has pulled off a visual trick that sounds like stage magic: they made a flash of light vanish inside a ...

Matter in its liquid state is convenient for processing and controlling chemical reactions, owing to its fluidity. Recently much evidence has been accumulated for the existence of a liquid–liquid ...

The separation process can be conducted using various instruments, but the most fitting method depends on the mixture’s properties. This article covers the importance of solid-liquid separation in the ...

Understanding the molecular interactions in binary liquid mixtures is fundamental to both theoretical studies and practical applications in chemistry and engineering. In these systems, the diverse ...

When liquids containing small particles evaporate, those fluids often leave behind fingerprints like coffee rings or whiskey webs (SN: 10/31/19). But liquids mixed with other liquids leave their own ...

The liquid crystals used in displays nowadays are usually in a nematic phase, i.e. a liquid-like state of almost parallel oriented molecules. However, there is another liquid crystal phase which has a ...

Filtration close filteringThe process of passing a mixture through a device - soluble substances pass through the filter as a 'filtrate' but insoluble substances or unwanted material will stay in the ...

A homogeneous mixture is also known as a solution. It is a substance composed of two or more substances that are distributed uniformly at a molecular level or microscopic. In easier terms, homogeneous ...
