In order for something to oxidize, it has to LOSE ELECTRONS. If it comes in contact with something that is more likely to accept those electrons, than to lose its own electrons, then an oxidation/reduction reaction will occur.
Because Oxygen is a very strong acceptor of electrons.
Earth's atmosphere is 21% oxygen gas, a strong oxidizing agent. Many substances will react with the oxygen in the atmosphere.
Coke is not used to oxidize the slag . It is carbon that is used to oxidize slag.

Bases aren't oxidized in air.
Nitrite.

It takes 3 hours for a cut apple to oxidize.
Exposure to air caused the apple to oxidize and turn brown. He didn't want the metal to oxidize, so he applied a coat of primer.
Yes, there are chemicals to oxidize any metal you can think of, including gold. Gold will also oxidize on it's own if given enough time.
All oils will oxidize leather over a period of time and moisture will do it also.
Coke is not used to oxidize the slag . It is carbon that is used to oxidize slag.
Substances which can oxidize molecular Oxygen(O2) are =Fluorine(F2) - It will oxidize Oxygen to +2 oxidation state:F2 + O2 ----> OF2 (Oxygen difluoride)Platinum(VI) Fluoride - It will oxidize Oxygen to +1/2 Oxidation state:O2 + PtF6 ----> O2PtF6 (Dioxygenyl Hexafluoroplatinate)
Brass does not oxidize easily, and a brass towel bar if properly plated will not either.
no,it cannot
there is oxygen in air
No. Neither gold nor platinum will oxidize except under extreme conditions such as immersion in aqua regia.
