Oxidation Reduction Reactions
A very large group of reactions. They can be very complicated or very simple depending on how you look at them. Simply they can be described as two or atoms or groups of atoms exchanging electrons. Since an atoms are exchanging, we would expect to see some sort of shift of the charges on the atoms. This charge is often described as oxidation states.
The name of this lab is the Metal Reactivities Lab. Which metals are most likely to exchange electrons?
