The dehydration of alcohols is involved in many organic conversions but has to overcome high free-energy barriers in water. Here we demonstrate that hydronium ions confined in the nanopores of ...

The concept of the hydronium ion has been known since the 19th century. In the 1880s, Swedish physicist/chemist Svante Arrhenius, working with German chemist Wilhelm Ostwald, defined an acid as a ...

The mutual neutralization of hydronium and hydroxide Date: February 26, 2024 Source: The Hebrew University of Jerusalem Summary: Researchers have been able to directly visualize the neutral ...

The mutual neutralization (MN) of hydronium cation, H 3 O +, and the hydroxide anion, OH ¯ to form neutral water molecules is one of the most basic chemical processes, where the MN by proton ...

Hydronium is a positively charged ion produced when a proton is added to a water molecule. The researchers have demonstrated that hydronium ions can be reversibly stored in an electrode material ...

Identification of the Elusive Hydronium Ion Exchanging Roles with a Proton in an Enzyme at Lower pH Values. Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2011; 50 (33): 7520 DOI: 10.1002/anie.201101753 ...

The study has unveiled critical insights into one of the most fundamental chemical reactions: the mutual neutralization of hydronium (H 3 O⁺) and hydroxide (OH⁻) ions. This reaction, essential ...

The recombination of hydronium and hydroxide ions following water ionization is one of the most fundamental processes determining the pH of water. The neutralization step once the solvated ions are in ...

Hydronium-ion batteries show promise for sustainable high-power energy storage, according to scientists at Oregon State University, which claims to have developed the world’s first battery to use only ...

The hydronium ions also migrate through the electrode structure with comparatively low "friction," which translates to high power. "It's not going to power electric cars," Ji said.
