Unstable chemistry and the mystery of extra dimensions

Nitrogen Triiodide and Multi Dimensions – Monthly Mailbag #1 · 5:01 · Video: The Royal Institution · Watch at the source

In short: In this inaugural session, Kate explores complex scientific questions ranging from the volatile nature of nitrogen triiodide to the fundamental mechanics of planetary orbits and the theoretical existence of multiple dimensions.

This video serves as the first installment of a new series where Kate addresses diverse inquiries from the community. The discussion tackles the chemical instability of nitrogen triiodide, specifically how such a sensitive substance can be synthesized. Beyond chemistry, the session delves into physics and cosmology, examining why the Earth maintains its orbit around the sun and investigating the theoretical framework of multi-dimensional space.
