= Spin chemistry
{wiki=Spin_chemistry}
Spin chemistry is a field of chemistry that focuses on the role of electron and nuclear spin in chemical systems and reactions. It explores how the intrinsic angular momentum (or "spin") of particles like electrons and nuclei can influence chemical processes, including reactions, bonding, and molecular dynamics. Key aspects of spin chemistry include: 1. **Spin States**: Molecules can exist in different spin states (e.g., singlet and triplet states for electrons) which can have different properties and reactivities.
