As the scientists analyzed the results, they encountered a large number of exceptionally stable carbon molecules with 60 atoms.
The term 'organic life' comprises living creatures based on the carbon molecule.
The carbon molecules in the gasoline aren't finding enough oxygen to combine with and they're just sitting here loading up the plug.
The practical uses of this quality in the carbon molecules are not yet clear.
In 1865 he reported his discovery of the benzene ring as the basis for another major group of carbon molecules.
If they survive the trip to the ground, the carbon molecules in their interiors often remain intact.
It's got proteins and some dense long-chain carbon molecules in it.
A first analysis of that data showed a large range of complex carbon molecules.
The polyamorous carbon molecule would be completely out of place in an exclusively pair-bonded world.
For example, they would break down a six carbon sugar to two three carbon molecules (pyruvate).
