How a Tiny Helper Boosts Big Chemical Reactions

Scientists have found a clever way to make chemical reactions happen faster. They used a tiny helper called imidazole (ImH) to boost the speed of a reaction that breaks down a pollutant called 2, 4-chlorophenol. The reaction was 110 times faster than before! Here's how it works: The ImH sticks to t
