Is it possible to oxidise carbon at normal temperature and pressure?

Yes, it is possible to oxidize carbon at normal temperature and pressure, although the reactions are typically slow. For example, carbon can react with oxygen in the presence of a catalyst or under specific conditions to form carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide. However, at ambient conditions, the oxidation process is generally not spontaneous and requires heat or other forms of energy to proceed at a noticeable rate.
