Chemical Reactions Art

These beautiful shots can look like modern art but actually chemical reactions as immortalized in the lens. The University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) Chemistry students created a collection of images from the experiments in the laboratory do the time evolution titled "Beautiful Chemistry" to show the beauty of the elements when they react with each other.
