The metal atoms are losing electrons to form an ion. They are being oxidised. \(Mg(s) \to Mg_{}^{2 + }(aq) + 2e_{}^ - \) This is known as an ion-electron equation. Reduction is the opposite of ...

Transmitting an effect known as a domino reaction using redox chemistry has been achieved for the first time. Transmitting an effect known as a domino reaction using redox chemistry has been achieved ...

Every whizz, bang and explosion can be explained in terms of redox chemistry. In any redox reaction, one substance is ‘giving’ electrons to another. These transfers of electrons are responsible for ...

An interdisciplinary team presents a new class of chemical compounds that can be reversibly oxidized and reduced. The compounds known as 'pyrazinacenes' are simple, stable compounds that consist of a ...
