The reactions of metals with water, acid and oxygen depend on their position in the reactivity series. This can be summed up in the diagram below.

A new study has challenged conventional wisdom on oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts by uncovering a novel reaction ...

Atoms of non-noble metals migrate out and form so-called "SAC-like structures" (single atom catalyst-like). These catalysts mediate two important reactions, namely the oxygen evolution and ...

The spontaneity of redox reactions is demonstrated using copper, zinc, and silver, and their cations. When solid zinc is placed in Cu2+ solution, the blue color of the solution becomes less intense as ...

Hydrogen peroxide decomposes on its own into water and oxygen gas. This process is sped up by a catalyst. In this reaction, the catalyst is potassium permanganate, and the bubbles are full of oxygen ...
