MODULE ABOUT REDUCTION-OXIDATION REACTION (REDOX) Puzon, Trisha Gaile V. 9-Kelvin Ms. Laura Canceran INTRODUCTION As time passes by, I’ve realized many things such as chemistry isn’t easy subject to learn because sometimes intelligence doesn’t matter the most. Intelligence must be mixed with some hardwork and dedication. In our Grade 7 & 8, we’ve tackled about the basic properties of common elements but now we are studying it in more complicated way than before so I think it is kind of
oxidized form of the redox couple so that at potenials lower than the redox potential, i.e. the initial potential, there is no net conversion of oxidized species (O) into reduced species (R) (point A). As redox potential is approached, there is net cathodic current which increases exponentially with potential. As O is converted to R, concentration gradients are set up for both O and R, and diffusion occurs down these concentration gradients. At the cathodic peak (point B), the redox potential is sufficiently

The affected aquifer is a ... ... middle of paper ... ...ow of anthropogenic carbon, the mobilization probably occurred from a complex combination of redox changes. The organic carbon influenced the microbially mediated dissolution of Fe-oxyhydroxides and freed surface bound arsenic. As(V) is not the stable form of dissolved arsenic in highly reducing conditions, so it’s quickly reduced to the more mobile
several biochemical and physiological processes, such as in the protection mechanism in tissues infected and damage physically, participation in lignification process, and in the elimination of toxic effects of hydrogen peroxide which is produced during redox reaction. (Bhatti et al., 2012). Peroxidases contain haem proteins and have prosthetic group of iron (III) protoporphyrin IX (ferriprotoporphyrin IX). This is an assembly of oxidoreductases which catalyze the peroxiase reduction, like H2O2 and the
Every element in the periodic table falls into one category of metals, non-metals or metalloids. Metals are the most common type and they are defined by certain chemical and physical properties. Metals can be narrowed down by looking at their chemical properties. They have positive valences, which means that they give electrons to the atoms they bond with. Giving negative electrons away makes the metals form cations. (BrainPop) As metals form cations, they are able to oxidize and this makes them
However, do you know redox reaction powers a battery? Electron transfer reactions take place inside a cell which is the basic principle by which a batter/cell is made. Redox reaction is a type of chemical reaction. A chemical reaction involves process change that happens when to or more molecules react with one another and result in the formation of a new product. In this article more about redox reactions with respect to electron transfer reactions.
The “blue-bottle” experiment demonstrates a redox reaction. This is one of the most common reactions in chemistry. Redox reactions are the movement of electrons from one substance to another. The word “redox” comes from the concepts of reduction and oxidation. Reduction is the intake of an electron by an atom. Oxidation is the opposite. It is the loss of an electron by an atom. These two reactions go hand in hand because in a chemical reaction, one reaction cannot happen without the other. The blue
chemistry which primarily focuses on the flow of electrons and the chemical reactions which occur due to the flow of those electrons. These chemical reactions are known as oxidation-reduction reactions, or simply redox reactions. Electrical energy provides the energy needed for the redox reactions to occur. Where oxidation occurs, reduction is certain to follow. Oxidation entails an increase in oxidation number, signifying a loss of electrons. Reduction entails a decrease in oxidation number, signifying
measurements will be performed to measure and detect the current at the working electrode and plotted versus the applied voltage. Electrochemical window of working electrode and electrolyte solution can examine the oxidation/reduction peak of redox species. If absence of redox analyte the cyclic voltammogram will form rectangular shape as voltage constantly varies the current will get to steady state. GO (0.5 g/mL) will be added in to 0.05M Sodium Perborate (PBS) solution. 30 continuous Cyclic voltammograms
In this exercise, two experimentations were performed to compare the fermentation rates of yeast under various conditions and measure the cellular respiration in mitochondria that have been isolated from lima beans. For part one, yeast was grown in various carbohydrate solutions as a food source at various temperatures. A yeast suspension was transferred into a fermentation tube and measurements of 〖CO〗_2 produced were recorded. This Introduction: Cellular respiration is the method of breaking down
forms and return it to its original form. A specific quantity of copper undergo many types of reactions and went through its whole cycle, then returned to its solid copper to be weighted. We observed 5 chemical reactions involving copper which are: Redox reaction (which includes all chemical reactions in which atoms have their oxidation state changed), double displacement reaction, precipitation reaction, decomposition reaction, and single displacement reaction. 4HNO3(aq) + Cu(s) --> Cu (NO3)2(aq)
~ Introduction ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Reduction and Oxidation (RedOx) reactions are known to be one of the most confusing lessons in Consumer Chemistry. This involves balancing equations in different sets of chemical equation. But before this, you need to master the concepts of Polyatomic Ions and Oxidation Numbers of the elements because in Red-Ox, you will need these skills to get the Net Ionic Equation we are looking for. Learning this topic can be an easy one if you carefully analyze the equation given
Zn (s) + Cu(NO3)2 (aq) → Cu(s) + Zn(NO3)2 (aq) (Eq. 2) Regarding, the copper and sodium chloride, no visible change occurred after 5 minutes had passed. The copper metal remained at the bottom of the test tube undeterred by the NaCl. There may not have been a reaction because copper is lower on the reactivity series than sodium. Metathesis: Precipitation (Nonredox) The reaction between and KCl is a double replacement reaction because the cations Cu2+ and K+ switched places and formed two new
Abstract The citric acid cycle, also known as the Krebs cycle and the tribocarboxylic acid cycle, is the hub of the metabolic wheel. The cycle earns this phrase due its role in the oxidation of various fuel molecules i.e. its catabolic nature, and in the provision of carbon skeletons for biosynthesis or its anabolic nature. Anaplerotic reactions are imperative as they replenish the anabolic reactions to ensure the cycle’s function is maintained. The citric acid cycle‘s central role in metabolism

The phenolic compounds are the main component responsible for antioxidant activity, is mainly due to their redox properties, which can play an important role in absorbing and neutralizing free radicals, quenching singlet and triplet oxygen, or decomposing peroxides. Recently, phenolics or polyphenols have received considerable attention because of their physiological functions, including antioxidant, antimutagenic and antitumor activities. They have been reported to be a potential compound to combat
Investigating Photosyntesis in Pond Weed Aim: The aim of this experiment is to find out what effects the amount of photosynthesis happening in a pond weed. Introduction: A piece of pondweed will be cut and placed into a test tube containing water and sodium hydrogen carbonate, which is placed inside a beaker containing water. A lamp will be shined on to the pondweed and the amount of bubbles released from the plant will be counted. The lamp will be adjusted to different distances
In ergonomics, the major concept is the relationship between people, their work and the things they use at their places of work. The relationship and the manner in which these factors depend on each other influence their operations and efficiency. This means that good and well-established relationships enhance the efficiency by increasing speed and making quality of the final result better. Poor relationships between workers and the environment cause the quality of activities to drop and errors may
1. Introduction Photosynthesis occurs in plants and some organisms from the Kingdom Protista, such as algae. It is the process of converting light energy into chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar of the organism. This process takes place in the leaves of a plant specifically in the chloroplast and it uses chlorophyll. In order to make sugar plants require only the following: Light energy, Water, and Carbon Dioxide. Chlorophyll is made into the membranes of the thylakoids. (Clermont
