An oxidizing agent is reduced in a chemical reaction by gaining electrons. Some examples are halogens, nitric acid and potassium nitrate.
Synthesis, decomposition, combustion, and oxidation are some examples of chemical changes (reactions) of matter.
oxidity, senstitivity to light, flambility, toxity, oxidation, and radioactivity
The oxidation number is 0 in elemental form. It can have other oxidation numbers as -2, +4 and +6 in its compounds such as H2S, SO2 and SO3 respectively.-2, 0, 2, 4 and 6 oxidation states
Both are examples of oxidation.
Examples: flammability, corrosivity, ability to oxidation, thermal stability, electropositivity etc.
There are chemical handbooks and journals filled with examples of oxidation reduction reactions.
Reactivity with water, oxidation, flammability
Examples: chemical reactivity, resistance to corrosion, flammability, oxidation, etc.
Examples of chemical transformations include combustion (burning of wood), photosynthesis (conversion of light energy into chemical energy in plants), and the formation of rust on iron (oxidation of iron in the presence of oxygen and water).
The oxidation number of an atom in a compound depends on what is attached to it.The following are examples of oxidation numbers (ON #)for sulfur :S8 ON # 0H2S ON # -2SO2 ON # +4SO3 ON # +6H2SO4 ON# +6
It shows some oxidation numbers. Generally it shows +4 oxidation numbers.
2 Mg + O2 gives 2MgO
