| Answer» 1)Rancidity of food : It is a slow oxidation of oils and fats present in food material resulting in some bad small and taste.2)Corrosion of metal: The process in which metals are eaten up gradually by the action of air, moisture or chemicals on their surface.3) Production of some important chemicals is also based on electrolysis which in turn is based on redox reactions. Many chemicals like caustic soda, chlorine, etc. are produced using redox reactions.4) Oxidation-Reduction reactions or redox reactions also find their application in sanitizing water and bleaching materials. | |
