A study shows that electrical charges in sprays of water can cause chemical reactions that form organic molecules from inorganic materials. The findings provide evidence that microlightning may have ...

Experiments show that those small electrical charges can trigger the chemical reactions necessary to form organic molecules.

One famous experiment conducted in 1952 by American chemists Stanley Miller and Harold Urey provided a possible explanation: ...

For the first time, scientists have observed water molecules splitting in real time to form hydrogen and oxygen. And right ...
