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 ...

The question of why we age is one of the most fascinating questions for humankind, but nothing close to a satisfactory answer has been found to date. Scientists at the Leibniz-Institut für Molekulare ...

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 ...

In recent years, scientists have looked at a growing number of electroactive compounds for their potential use in high-performance redox flow batteries for grid-scale energy storage. The Dutch ...

Two diamonds from South Africa’s Voorspoed mine provide a rare direct insight into the chemistry of Earth’s mantle. Although diamonds can be formed in multiple ways, the findings add to evidence ...
