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 ...
Oxidation close oxidationThe gain of oxygen, loss of hydrogen or loss of electrons by a substance during a chemical reaction. is the loss of electrons, gain of oxygen or loss of hydrogen. Reduction ...
oxidation is the loss of electrons reduction is the gain of electrons Balance the half equation for the formation of aluminium during electrolysis: Al 3+ + e-→ Al. The balanced half equation is: Al 3+ ...
Emergent e-fuel technologies often employ the reverse water-gas shift (RWGS) reaction to convert atmospheric CO2 to CO. While efficient, this reaction requires high temperatures and complex gas ...
Hybrid water electrolysers are recent devices, which produce hydrogen or other reduction products at the cathode, while ...
Copper-based catalysts are promising for converting CO2 into multi-carbon products like ethylene and ethanol, but their oxidized states are unstable under reaction conditions. A research team from the ...
