No really... the iron in her blood would gladly lend some electrons.

What the most important chemical process in living things is?
oxidation
What types antibotics are Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli suseptible to?
Most strains of Staphylococcus aureus are susceptible to vancomycin and have not yet built up a resistance. Some strains are still susceptible to penicillin and other antibiotics so it really depends on the strain.Most strains of E. coli are susceptible to amoxicillin and many cephalosporins. This also depends on the strain because some are resistant and some are susceptible.
What are the raw materials for oxidation?
Well, you generally need some atoms, which will have some electrons obviously. The movement of the electrons generally relates to a change in oxidation state, and hence the chemical process of oxidation (and reduction) has occurred.
What is true about oxidation-reduction reactions?
They involve either transfer of electrons, or a change in the oxidation state of some atoms involved.
What occurs when some materials are exposed to oxygen and water over time and can result in rusting?
Oxidation happens.
What is the stuctural feature of fatty acid that determines their suseptability to spoilage by oxygen?
Any thing in nature witch can burn by oxidation is susceptible for oxidation. Fat can burn in oxygen so it is susceptible to spoilage by oxygen like all other things. Fat differs from say sodium, as sodium will burn or not burn but fat contain long chain fatty acids (16,18,20 carbon atoms in each of 3 chains.)so it can be oxidized partially making it "spoiled" by oxygen step by step with oxidation of each atom of carbon at a time. So we get more or less spoilage.
Can you convert iron into wires?
Yes, it can. It's unusual to make anything from pure iron, however, because it is soft, weak and susceptible to oxidation.
What two things are laptops more susceptible to?
Dirt and dust.
Why are aldehydes more susceptible to oxidation whiles ketones are not?
The carbon-hydrogen single bond in an aldehyde group is weaker, and therefore easier to break during oxidation, than either carbon-carbon single bond to the carbon atom of a carboxyl group in a ketone.
What is THE common oxidation number for tantalum?
It shows some oxidation numbers. Generally it shows +4 oxidation numbers.
Is combustion a form of oxidation or reduction?
In all Redox reactions some things are oxidized (meaning those elements lose electrons) and some things are reduced (meaning those elements gain electrons). The phrase to remember is OIL RIG - Oxidation Is Losing Reduction Is Gaining.

What minerals are susceptible to chemical weathering by dissolution?
Your question is somewhat odd, you use the words "chemical weathering" and "dissolution" together.Chemical weathering is usually a process of weathering by "solution" in which case the minerals susceptible to this would be:- Carbonates and halides.Dissolution means decomposition into fragments or parts, a disintegration or liquefaction. There are some minerals that will do this, for instance Iron Pyrites.
Are some fuzes susceptible to electro-magnetic radiation?
Some fuzes are susceptible to electro-magnetic radiation, and transmissions from a cell-phone can cause them to detonate. This is the MOST CORRECT statement about fuzes.
Do all elements in a group have the same oxidation numbers?
There is at least one oxidation number shared by all the elements in a periodic table column, but some of the elements may have more than one oxidation number and some of these additional oxidation numbers may not be possible for all the elements in a column.
