====== Oxidation and Reduction Demonstrations ===== **See also: **[[categories:electrochemistry|Electrochemistry]]\\ \\ Oxidation and reduction describe paired processes in which electrons are transferred between substances. This category develops the language of oxidation states, identifies oxidising and reducing agents, and uses half-equations to track electron flow. Redox ideas help explain changes in energy, formation and breakdown of compounds, and processes that occur in natural and technological systems. Building confidence with redox thinking supports accurate explanations and clear chemical accounting.\\ ---- struct table ---- schema: demo cols: page, materials, difficulty, safety, summary header: "Demonstration", "Materials", "Difficulty", "Safety", "Summary" filter: categories~Oxidation and Reduction filter: page~demonstrations:% sort: title csv: 0 ---- **Materials**\\ ★☆☆ Easy to get from supermarket or hardware store\\ ★★☆ Available in most school laboratories or specialist stores\\ ★★★ Requires materials not commonly found in school laboratories\\ **Difficulty**\\ ★☆☆ Can be easily done by most teenagers\\ ★★☆ Available in most school laboratories or specialist stores\\ ★★★ Requires a more experienced teacher\\ **Safety**\\ ★☆☆ Minimal safety procedures required\\ ★★☆ Some safety precautions required to perform safely\\ ★★★ Only to be attempted with adequate safety procedures and trained staff\\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\
