Chemistry. In chemistry, "activation" refers to the reversible transition of a molecule into a nearly identical chemical or physical state, with the defining characteristic being that this resultant state exhibits an increased propensity to undergo a specified chemical reaction. Thus, activation is conceptually the opposite of protection, in ...
With fuel running low because of the failed fuel pump, Bockscar and The Great Artiste headed for their secondary target, Nagasaki. Fuel consumption calculations made en route indicated that Bockscar had insufficient fuel to reach Iwo Jima and would be forced to divert to Okinawa , which had become entirely Allied-occupied territory only six ...

Gating (electrophysiology) An animated representation of the molecular structure of a simple ion channel. In electrophysiology, the term gating refers to the opening ( activation) or closing (by deactivation or inactivation) of ion channels. [1] This change in conformation is a response to changes in transmembrane voltage.
The oxidative coupling of methane ( OCM) is a potential chemical reaction studied in the 1980s for the direct conversion of natural gas, primarily consisting of methane, into value-added chemicals. Although the reaction would have strong economics if practicable, no effective catalysts are known, and thermodynamic arguments suggest none can exist.
