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 ...

Although it is known that soot particles are emitted in large quantities to the atmosphere, our understanding of their environmental effects is limited by our knowledge of how their composition is ...

Reduction is the gain of electrons by a substance. It is also the loss of oxygen from a substance. For example, copper(II) oxide can be reduced to form copper when it reacts with hydrogen: ...

Redox-active metal-organic frameworks (RAMOFs) are highly porous materials made of metals and organic molecules linked ...

Researchers from The University of Osaka created a reagent for important building-block molecules with an abundant main-group element, gallium. These early findings show that an organic gallium ...

Scientists in China designed a suplhuer-based redox flow battery with a peak power density of 95.7 mW cm2 and an average energy efficiency of 76.5% at 30 mA cm2 within 50 cycles. A group of scientists ...
