All about to know "Virtual Chemistry"

      Chemists have been building molecular models for centuries. It’s a crucial exercise in understanding the interactions that take place and are otherwise invisible. But there’s no denying drawing structures or fiddling with Molymod lacks the excitement and spectacle of a live experiment. Now, this traditionally dull activity could be about to get a new lease of life, thanks to advances in a technology more often associated with gaming: virtual reality (VR). EIn David Glowacki’s lab at the university of Bristol, UK, molecules appear right in front of you in all their moving, three-dimensional glory. You can push, prod and even wrestle with them. Glowacki has spent five years perfecting the Nano Simbox VR system, which gives those who don Occulus Rift-style headsets an experience of total immersion in the molecular world. Armed with ‘atomic tweezers’ one can attempt to tie a wriggling peptide chain into a knot, or manipulate a drug molecule so ...

#October 23 #Mole Day #Avagadro's Number

            Mole day is unofficial holy day Celebrated by chemists annually from 6.02 am to 6.02 pm on October 23rd, Mole Day commemorates Avogadro’s number (6.022 x 10 23 ), which is the number of atoms in exactly 12 grams of carbon-12 (one mole).  This was founded by the National Mole Day Foundation on 15th May 1991. You may be thinking that this day is in honor of the little burrowing creature. However, it is not.   This celebration takes place between 6:02 AM and 6:02 PM, making the date 6:02 10/23 in the American style of writing dates.   The time and date are derived from Avogadro’s number, which is approximately 6.02×10^23, defining the number of particles (atoms or molecules) in one mole of substance, one of the seven base SI units .   T his number is dimensionless and named after Italian scientist Amedeo Avogadro. The National Mole Day Foundation founded in 1991 celebrates the day every year wit...

What can you do with chemistry degree?

Every chemistrian have a question  "What can do with a chemistry degree''??but no one are not well aware about how  opportunities  surrounded by them.Actually entire world are going under svienctist and so the significant of chemistry are highly increasing. The opportunities within science and technology are seeing unprecedented growth across the world, and so those who study chistry or another natural science at university are seeing their career prospects develop right before their eyes Chemistry involves the study of all things chemical – chemical processes, chemical compositions and chemical manipulation – in order to better understand the way in which materials are structured, how they change and how they react in certain situations. Having gained chemical understanding at molecular level, chemistry graduates may choose to apply this knowledge in almost unlimited ways, as it can be used to analyze all matter and therefore our entire environment. So, ...

#Best Ranked World Universties #Chemistry #India

                  There are some Top Universities in India leading deeply in quality of reseaech and Students improvements programme in Chemistry.These ranking based on U.S news and world report. Students interested in chemistry can explore these well-regarded universities.That have own strength in producing research in the field. Chemistry is the study  of matter, or the “stuff” in and around us, and is related to biology and physics. Subjects include organic chemistry, Physical chemistry,inorganic chemistry and analytical chemistry. These are the top universities in India for chemistry.The fastly growing world the significant of chemists and researchers are highly increasing . So ,these ranking should help students and researchers who are highly searching best for doing Msc,Ms,PhD,P doc etc Africa Asia Australia/New Zealand Europe Latin AmI Mire  Agricultural Sciences Arts and Hum...

WHY DON'T ?? CHEMISTS think their field is innovative enough

    About 80% of chemists surveyed  by Reaxys think people are gone  towards other scientific fields with more ‘newsworthy’ research         A survey lead by   Reaxys , Elsevier’s web-based chemical data retrieval tool, suggests that chemistry has an innovation problem when compared with other disciplines, and that this may be harming its ability to attract and retain talented scientists. Reaxys polled 186 chemists from across academia and industry, 78% of whom said they thought potential chemists chose to go into other sciences because the research seemed more ‘newsworthy’.

ORIGIN OF GOLD ,SILVER and PLATINUM

N An illustration of two neutron stars colliding For the first time, astronomers have detected a neutron-star collision. Gravitational waves heard by two detectors pinpointed the source to a galaxy 130 million light-years away. The collision produced a radioactive "kilonova" that forged hundreds of Earths' worth of platinum, gold, silver, and other atoms. The discovery solves a longstanding mystery about the origins of heavy elements. Platinum and gold are among the most precious substances on Earth, each fetching roughly $1,000 an ounce. However, their allure may grow stronger - and weirder - thanks to a groundbreaking new finding about their violent, radioactive, and cosmic origins. On Monday, scientists  who won a Nobel Prize  for their discovery of gravitational waves, or  ripples in the fabric of space , announced the first detection of the collision of two neutron stars. The team alerted astronomers all over the world to the event right afte...
