Bonding Crystals to Store and Transport Carbon Compounds
Bonding Crystals to Store and Transport Carbon CompoundsOne of the newest and most interesting elements to show up in the news lately is the latest innovation in bonds chemistry: bonds of carbon-based compounds. In the last couple of years, scientists have been trying to work out how to store and transport some of these elements in a new way. They are designing molecules that allow them to hold the elements at a low temperature, without the risk of the element spontaneously decomposing.One of the recent technology breakthroughs has been the creation of a molecule with a ring. They may seem familiar - they are similar to the two rings found on most bonds chemistry and bio-organic chemistry supplies. But the similarities end there, as these rings are actually extremely useful.These rings are held in place by molecules called co-axial ligands. These are excited by cross-linked benzene rings that are contained within a special molecule called CO 2 - but they can be used as well. In these new hybrid cross-linked rings, the oxygen and hydrogen atoms have different spins, making it easier for scientists to control the bonding and other properties of the molecules. The rings also make it possible to 'strip' them off so that the ring loses its special property.Other ways in which these cross-linked rings are used to hold various elements have been discovered too. However, it is important to understand the difference between chemistry engineering, as this can often make an otherwise important discovery very different. Engineering is concerned with structures and methods for producing or using materials, while chemistry deals with the chemical reactions which produce the materials, and the application of the materials.For example, in the production of fuel for cars and ships, the chemical compounds that help the fuel run smoothly are relatively simple. Making them is very simple too, making it easy to mix up different types of fuels and then create a fuel mixture that wil l work as a power source. However, the application of these fuels is much more difficult. This is because it is possible to take certain fuels, combine them with other substances, and get something that is not very useful for most applications.Engineers do not think much about the engineering aspect of chemical compounds - they are a matter of producing the right recipe of reactants, additives, and the desired reaction products. Chemists, on the other hand, think about the chemical reaction that takes place in order to make a particular chemical compound, and the reactions that may occur between the components in the compound.As a result, chemical engineers consider building blocks as the basis of chemistry, and chemicals as the building blocks of the universe. As it turns out, chemistry is very similar to physics, with the two fields doing a lot of work together in order to improve the science of physics itself. At the same time, physics and chemistry need each other to understand the interactions that take place in the world around us.
