Either deoxidation or reduction would be a suitable word. However, note that from a pure metal, oxygen can not be removed, because none is present.

What are inert metals?
I did not know it either but inert means it cannot react, so my best guess is that and inert electrode is one that will not react with the ons in the electrolyte. So it wont react with oxygen and form CO2. We would not have to replace it.
What word describes the absence of oxygen?
It is referred to as a vaccum, when there are no oxygen particles in a space, namely, outer space. Technology also exists to create an artificial vaccum by allowing the oxygen to escape from a bag, or jar, or whatever it is. dying
Another word for zero oxygen environment?
Vacuum
Where in the reactivity series are the metals most affected by corrosion?
The rate of corrosion is directly linked to a metal's reactivity. The higher the metal in the series, the more reactive, also more susceptible to corrosion with oxygen and water. aluminum is not easy to corrode. Aluminum quickly reacts with oxygen in the air, and the oxide layer that forms protects the metal underneath from any further reaction.
What is an extremely reactive family of elements?
The Group 1 , Alkali metals. They all react with oxygen and water to form the hydroxide and release hydrogen. They all react with oxygen and water to form the hydroxide and release hydrogen. The reactivity increases down the Group . Lithium gently effervesces. Sodium 'pop's and sparks. Potassium ignites with a bang. Rubidium is moderately explosive. Caesium is violently explosive. Francium is extremely violently explosive. Francium is not reacted in an open laboratory because it is also radio-active. All the metals in Group 1 are kept under oil; no oxygen present).
How do metals react with o2?
how do metals react with oxygen
How are metals treated to prevent them from rusting?
Metals are prevented from rusting by providing a coating on the surface of the metal to stop the metal from mixing with oxygen and H2O in the air. Please do not copy this word for word. I am handing this in for a report. Thanks!
What is the process of removing metals etc. from the Earth?
Mining
Do Alkali earth metals react with oxygen?
Alkali earth metals react with oxygen to form basic oxides.
What gas reacts with metals?
Several gasses can react with metals, but due to the fact that you are asking for a single gas, the most likely answer that you will be looking for is Oxygen. Oxygen reacts with many metals (and non-metals).
What is an oxygen loving organism?
Oxygen loves most metals
What effects does oxygen have on metals?
Oxygen on metals may have many different effects depending on the metal and what the oxygen is combined with. Oxygen combined with moisture on the metal of steel or iron will cause the metal to rust.
What metals can react with oxygen?
hydrogen
What is produced when you react a metal with oxygen?
Any metal that reacts with oxygen will produce a metal oxide. For example, magnesium reacts with oxygen to produce magnesium oxide, and zinc reacts with oxygen to produce zinc oxide. It is helpful to know the general word equation: metal + oxygen -> metal oxide
What is the ductility of oxygen?
It doesn't have any. Ductility only applies to metals and oxygen isn't a metal.Ductility is the ability to pull metals into wires.
What class of compound are formed when oxygen combines with metals and non metals?
in Metals: compound of tae + ihi
What are the most numerous elements?
carbon hydrogen nitrogen and oxygen
