Explain the following terms with example.Oxidant. |
|
Answer» An oxidant is a reactant that oxidizes or removes electrons from other reactants during a redox reaction. An oxidant may also be called an oxidizer or oxidizing agent. When the oxidant includes oxygen, it may be called an oxygenation reagent or oxygen-atom transfer (OT) agent. Examples of oxidants include: 1. Hydrogen peroxide 2. Ozone 3. Nitric acid 4. Sulfuric acid |
