Abstract:Three groups of unexpected experimental findings were published in the past twenty years in different research areas, opposing current paradigms, and supporting the following statements: (i) water is becoming the ideal medium for chemical synthesis; (ii) water is an electrifying agent of most materials; (iii) macroscopic matter is formed by charge mosaics that are often the outcomes of surface processes at the aqueous interfaces. These statements provoke major changes in chemical thinking that have a common fe… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
