New computer calculations have revealed that a century-long assumption in chemistry is wrong. At the crux of the matter is the movement of the hydroxide ion, OH –, in water. Hydroxide ions and protons ...

Researchers have been able to directly visualize the neutral products of the mutual neutralization of hydronium and hydroxide, and report three different product channels: two channels were attributed ...

A new study provides fresh insight into traditional acid-base chemistry by revealing that the mutual neutralization of isolated hydronium (H 3 O⁺) and hydroxide (OH⁻) ions is driven by electron ...

Spectroscopic data shows that a hydroxide ion can donate a hydrogen bond to water, supporting one of two previously proposed mechanisms for its unusually fast transport in aqueous solution. The ...
