    What Makes Materials Transparent at the Molecular Level?

    The nanotubes are made up of Buckyballs (Buckminsterfullerene, C60). And about how many would be needed, we decided to attach charged ions on the ends of it to attract the water molecules and we are assuming that by the year 2029 a very powerfull nanopump will be created, therefore we are...

    What Makes Materials Transparent at the Molecular Level?

    thx, for the answers, and i don't think going into quantum physics would do anything but confuse me, so maybe i can be more precise about what i want to know and someone might be able to explaine it that way. This question comes from a problem that my group for chemistry class is facing in...

    Why is a function not differentiable at a point?

    increadibly enough I understood some of that, it sounds very interesting, what kind of math does topology fall into? Did I just completely forgat about all of topology or do you lear that after calc.?

    Why is a function not differentiable at a point?

    "the function you give cookiemonster is most definitely not a continuous function (assuming you're not doing something bizarre with the topology)." I know I'm going to be so confused at the answer for this, but in any case, what is topology and how could that be used to make that equation...

    What Makes Materials Transparent at the Molecular Level?

    I remember learning that in mixtures if the particles were small enough light would go through and make it trasparent, my question is how/does this relates to things like glass or trasparent plastic? What at the molecular level makes something transparent?
