What is the importance of redox reaction in daily life?

Answer 1

Redox reactions are VERY important, and have formed the basis of much of what we have discovered, if not directly than indirectly. You will most likely agree with me in saying that the invention of a battery, be it an immobile cell or a portable power source, is an important event in history, correct? Well, the first batteries produced, such as the Voltaic Pile and the Daniell Cell, are actually examples of a redox reaction, where electrons move from chemical to another, changing the chemical species of each as it occurs. For example, in the Daniell cell, copper in a copper nitrate solution and zinc in a zinc nitrate solution have different reduction or oxidation potentials, and thus can induce an electron flow in both an internal circuit (such as a salt bridge- paper soaked in an ionic solution, an electrolytic solution) and an external circuit (such as your device that is powered by the battery).

Answer 2

the type of chemical reaction that keeps our houses warm in the winter, keeps our planes, trains, and autos running, and keeps our bodies alive. Also, don't forget reduction, because every oxidation has to be accompanied with an equivalent reduction.

Answer 3

Oxidation-reduction reactions are vital for biochemical reactions and industrial processes.

The electron transfer system in cells and oxidation of glucose in the human body are examples of redox reactions.

Redox reactions are used to reduce ores to obtain metals, to produce electrochemical cells, to convert ammonia into nitric acid for fertilizers, and to coat compact discs.

Answer 4

It is important because it is a reduction oxidation reaction. It is the way electrons move down the chain and are oxidized. then, they are reduced. This whole process creates energy for the cell.

Answer 5

It gives them a positive charge!
