The researchers successfully manipulated a single water molecule at an under-coordinated site of a sodium chloride film at a temperature of minus 268.8 degrees Celsius.

One had a crystal structure of two sodium chloride molecules for every 17 water molecules. That one formed at a temperature of about minus 100 degrees Fahrenheit and a pressure of 5,000 times the ...

Sodium (Na+) Potassium (K+) Calcium (Ca2+) Magnesium (Mg2+) Chloride (Cl−) Hydrogen phosphate (HPO42−) Hydrogen carbonate (HCO3−). The plus or minus symbol indicates the ionic nature of the ...

Table salt, or sodium chloride, is one of the most common crystals frequently featured in high-school chemistry textbooks as a prototypical ionic compound. It's long believed that such well-known ...
