AI Thread Summary
Superatom chemistry, initially highlighted in 2008, has seen limited scientific output since then, leading to a scarcity of accessible research articles and detailed information. The discussion reveals frustration over the lack of substantial publications and the brevity of available resources, including Wikipedia. Participants express doubt about the future significance of superatom chemistry, suggesting that no major breakthroughs are anticipated. Recommendations for finding free information include specific websites, though the relevance of these resources to the topic remains uncertain. Overall, the conversation underscores a perceived stagnation in the field and a need for more comprehensive and accessible research.

Hello everyone,
I see that superatom chemistry was considered to be a big lap in chemistry, lots of news articles were made in 2008. The problem is, I can't find any scientific articles etc. , nothing else, but basic information on it. Even the wikipedia article of superatom chemistry is really short and all other articles I can find aren't free.
Does anyone know what is going on at the moment about sc?
Where can I find information about superatom chemistry?
 
Chemistry news on Phys.org
From what I know, they didn't really publish/found something of a big importance, in the near future, I don't think there will much information about it, sadly.

Thank you.
 
This is based on Aluminum super conductors, but I doubt that it is what you are looking for. If you are looking for the most information for free, then I would recommend this site. I hope that this helps. :)

It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...
I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
