AHMED ZEWAIL.
Ahmed Hassan Zewail (Arabic: أحمد زويل) (born February 26, 1946) is an Egyptian American chemist, and the winner of the 1999 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his work on femtochemistry. Born in Damanhur (60 km south-east of Alexandria) and raised in Disuq, he received his first degrees from the University of Alexandria before moving from Egypt to the United States to complete his PhD at the University of Pennsylvania. After some post doctorate work at the University of California, Berkeley, he was awarded a faculty appointment at Caltech in 1976, where he has remained since. He became a naturalized citizen of the United States in 1982, and in 1990, he was made the first Linus Pauling Chair in Chemical Physics.
Zewail's key work has been as the pioneer of femtochemistry-i.e. the study of chemical reactions across femtoseconds. Using a rapid ultrafast laser technique (consisting of ultrashort laser flashes), the technique allows the description of reactions at the atomic level.
What else can I help you with?
How many seconds in a femto second?
There are 10-15 seconds in a femtosecond.
What are the other smaller units of second?
Split second, milli, micro, nano, pico, femto, attosecond etc.
What is sorter then a second?
Any of the following prefixes in front of second. Deci, centi, milli, micro, nano, pico, femto, atto etc.
How small is a femto in regards to a centimeter?
A femto is in metric prefix terms a quadrillionth, whereas a centimeter is a hundredth. The femto was added in 1964 and was derived from the word femten meaning 'fifteen'.
How many femto second in second?
There are one quadrillion (1,000,000,000,000,000) femtoseconds in a second.
What is the relationship between the units atto, femto, and pico in the metric system?
In the metric system, the units atto, femto, and pico are related by their respective powers of 10. Atto is 10-18, femto is 10-15, and pico is 10-12. This means that atto is smaller than femto, which is smaller than pico.
What comes after femto molar?
Its Venko

What is the fraction prefix meaning 0.000000000000001?
femto.femto.femto.femto.

What did dr ahmed zawel discover in femto reaction?
Dr. Ahmed Zawel's research in femto-reactions focuses on understanding chemical processes that occur on incredibly short timescales, typically in the femtosecond range (10^-15 seconds). His work has contributed to the development of advanced imaging techniques that allow scientists to observe and manipulate molecular interactions in real-time. This has significant implications for fields such as chemistry and materials science, as it enhances our understanding of reaction mechanisms and the dynamics of molecular changes.
Who were the second people to discover America?
Christopher Columbus because the Native Americans were in America first and Christopher Columbus was there second. He did not discover America because Native Americans were already there.
