These are liquids or gases at room temperature. Small covalent molecules have no overall charge and so cannot conduct electricity even when liquid or dissolved in water.

What is uncommon, is what they did next. A few weeks before the expedition, the crew gathered in Germany to begin testing with xenon gas under the supervision of anesthesiologist Michael Fries.

DOI: 10.1038/s41565-025-01949-6 A pioneering approach has been developed to convert carbon dioxide (CO₂) into methane (CH₄)—the main component of natural gas—at room temperature.

What if electricity and magnetism, usually considered as separate or even competing forces in materials, could actually work ...

This is as the federal government decries poor domestic gas utilisation. This sentiment was echoed by the special adviser on Energy to the President, Mrs Olu Arowolo Verheijen, who highlighted the ...
