When an atom looses an electron what is called?
It would be a positive ion, which is called an anion. (pronounced an-ion)
What are the current applications of the dakin reaction?
It has importannce in preparation of dihydroxy benzene
What is the rapid burning of fuels that takes place in engines is called?
The reaction between oxygen and another substance is called oxidation, such as the formation of rust. The rapid oxidation of fuel is called combustion.
What are the effects of oxidation reaction daily life?
Fuels burning is an oxidation reaction.
What is the name given to a reaction in which oxygen is removed from a compound?
This type of reaction is called a 'reduction'. (The opposite to 'oxidation')
What is Dakin reaction mechanism?
The Dakin oxidation is an organic redox reaction in which an ortho- or para-hydroxylated phenyl aldehyde (2-hydroxybenzaldehyde or 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde) or ketone reacts with hydrogen peroxide in base to form a benzenediol and a carboxylate. Overall, the carbonyl group is oxidized, and the hydrogen peroxide is reduced. The Dakin oxidation, which is closely related to the Baeyer-Villiger oxidation, is not to be confused with the Dakin-West reaction, though both are named after Henry Drysdale Dakin
What chemical reaction with other substances is called oxidation?
A reaction witrh oxygen is called oxidation. Generally oxidation involve lose of electrons.
What is the burning of substance called?
Burning is an oxidation reaction - a reaction with oxygen.
When an atom looses an electron what is called?
It would be a positive ion, which is called an anion. (pronounced an-ion)
A single reaction where oxidation and reduction take place is called?
a redox reaction
A sentence for oxidation?
The chemical reaction was called oxidaton.
What is chemical reaction of oxygen with other substances called?
The chemical reaction of oxygen with other substances is called oxidation.
The chemical reaction of oxygen and another substance is called?
oxidation in molecular terms, but in more general terms, combustion, aka burning!
What are the current applications of the dakin reaction?
It has importannce in preparation of dihydroxy benzene
What occurs at the cathode of a galvanic cell?
An oxidation half-reaction
What is the term for a reaction in which a substances gains electrons?
When a substance gains an electron or electrons, this is known as "reduction". For every reduction reaction, there is also an oxidation reaction. So, whatever substance "gave" the electrons, underwent oxidation.
Does the chemical reaction of carbon dioxide with other substances is called oxidation?
No. Presumably, if that were a subject of wide interest, it might be called carbon-dioxidation.Just plain old "oxidation" is the reaction of various substances with oxygen.
