Therefore, the sulfur atom is the center of the negative side, but the highest concentration of negative charge resides in the region occupied by its lone pairs. The hydrogen atoms, on the other hand, ...

Considering the types and strengths of the intermolecular forces, Sodium Chloride (NaCl) has the strongest intermolecular ...

A News of the Week article claimed that all-cis hexafluorocyclohexane (HFC) with a dipole moment equal to 6.2 debyes is “the most polar nonionic compound now known to exist” (C&EN, March 30, page 5).

The first stable quantum gas of molecules with large electric dipole moments has been made by physicists in the US. Unlike other quantum gases, the molecules interact with each other over relatively ...

Chemists have made the all-cis isomer of 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexafluorocyclohexane, a crystalline ring molecule with all six fluorines pointing “up” and all six hydrogens pointing “down.” This compound is ...

Polar diatomic molecules, consisting of potassium and rubidium, have been created with density and temperature close to the regime of quantum degeneracy. The ability to produce ultracold atoms has had ...
