Redox Chemistry - Coggle Diagram
Redox Chemistry
Redox reaction
Rate of Redox reaction
Strength of Reducing agent
Willingness to lose electrons
Strength of Oxidizing agent
General rule: Amount of electrons in the outer shell
Willingness to gain electrons
Temperature
Surface area
Concentration
Catalysts
Half Equations
Separate Oxidation and Reduction reactions
Include electrons
Balance atoms and charge
Characterised by a change in:
Electron
Part of Atoms
Atoms want 'full' outer electron shells
Can do this by:
Gaining electrons
Oxidizing agents gain electrons
Non-Metals are often Oxidizing agents
Undergoes Reduction
Losing electrons
Reducing agents lose electrons
Metals are often Reducing agents
REDucing and OXidizing agent put together form:
Undergoes Oxidation
Degree of losing electrons:
Oxidation State
Degree of oxidation
Described by positive or negative whole number
Forming Covalent bonds (other chapter)
Reactivity of metals
Place in the periodic table
