Think of a drop of water on your smartphone case; it just sits there as a well defined dome because the attraction between water molecules is stronger than those between water and the air, or water and the plastic.
When the target is fixed, the electrophilicity of the molecules is stronger, and the log (IC50) value is greater.
The electrostatic repulsion originated from the SDS molecules is stronger than the steric one from the poly ethylene oxide) chains of the nonionic Lutensol AT50.
If the associations between the molecules are strong enough to prevent flow under moderate stresses, such materials can serve as practical rubbery solids.
Regulation of the levels of Chl and its derivatives, such as protochlorophyll (Pchl) and protoporphyrin IX (Proto IX), is extremely important, because these molecules are strong photosensitizers; that is, when present in excess, they will generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) [ 10].
As long as the dielectric constant of solvent increases, the values of enthalpy of combination between solute molecule and solvent molecule are moving toward a negative value because combination of solvent molecule and solute molecule is strong.
The simulation results show that water adsorbs preferentially around the functional groups to form clusters, which then grow and merge at the edges of the graphene layers, rather than adsorbing onto the basal planes of the graphene because the electrostatic interactions (hydrogen bonding) between water molecules are stronger than the basal plane water dispersion interactions.
The tiny straw-shaped molecules are stronger than steel, flexible, and conductive and have been touted as the right stuff for everything from chemical sensors to wires for nanoscale computer circuitry.
Note that the x-axis is Nck concentration in panel A but total SH3 domain concentration in panel B. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.04123.014 10.7554/eLiFigure23.015 Figure 4 figure supplement 1. Di-valent molecules are stronger clustering agents than mono-valent molecules.
We find that the dissociative adsorption of EC molecule is stronger on Li/β Sn(100) and Li17Sn4 001) than on Li(100) in spite of larger electron transfer in the last case.
