What is the definition of oxidising?

Answer 1

Oxidation is the loss of one electron when the surface comes in contact with another surface or surfaces. Commonly examples of oxidation include the browning of a cut apple and rust when water stays on a metal surface for a long period of time.

Answer 2

Oxidizing means that the substance can react with Oxygen to form other compounds. Oxidation is an Exo-Thermic chemical reaction. It gives off heat. We see slow Oxidation in the form of RUST. We see RAPID Oxidation as Fire, or an Explosion.

Answer 3

the addition of oxygen to a compound with a loss of electrons

Answer 4

Oxidising mean when something is mixed with oxygen! xD

Answer 5

oxidizing material (say 1) means, it can oxidize other material reacting to it [say (2)], and the oxidizing material (1) itself undergoes reduction.
