Applications of RedOx Reactions

Applications of Redox Reactions : 

Applications of Redox Reactions Bleaching Antioxidants Rocket Fuel Metal Corrosion Chemiluminescence

Bleach : 

Bleach “Chlorine” bleach NaOCl decomposes Forms oxygen atom Na O Cl

Bleach : 

Bleach “Chlorine” bleach NaOCl decomposes Forms oxygen atom Na O Cl  Na O Cl

Bleach : 

Bleach Oxygen atoms react with stain NaOCl

Bleach : 

Bleach Oxygen atoms react with stain NaOCl O NaCl

Bleach Oxygen atoms react with stain Turns the stain colorless NaOCl

Antioxidants : 

Antioxidants Free Radicals Molecules with an unpaired electron Very unstable React with other molecules making new free radicals In living cells, very destructive

Antioxidants : 

Antioxidants Antioxidants Lots of outer electrons Reacts with free radicals but stays stable Vitamins are good examples

Antioxidants : 

Antioxidants Help keep cells healthy Also… Protects fresh fruit Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) as preservative in some drinks

Rocket Fuels : 

Rocket Fuels Combustion is Redox Fuels Oxidizing agent Spark Must carry oxidizing agent with rocket Liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen Solid aluminum and ammonium perchlorate

Metal Corrosion : 

Metal Corrosion Weakening of the metal through a reaction Often oxygen in air reacts with the metal Rusting of Iron

Metal Corrosion : 

Metal Corrosion Steel corrodes (rusts) Remember, steel is an iron alloy Oxygen and water turn iron to Fe2+ & Fe3+ Rust flakes off exposing more iron atoms More steel rusts, flakes, rusts, ….

Metal Corrosion : 

Metal Corrosion Aluminum and Zinc Corrode but do not flake Once covered with oxide, protected

Metal Corrosion : 

Metal Corrosion Paint the steel Small scratches expose iron to rusting Repaint or wax shut the scratch Galvanization Coat iron with zinc Zinc protects itself and thus protects the iron

Metal Corrosion : 

Metal Corrosion Steel too large to coat with zinc Add a piece of zinc Oxidizing agent takes electron Steel will conduct electrons Zinc touching steel anywhere will lose electrons

Chemiluminescence : 

Chemiluminescence the emission of light with limited emission of heat (luminescence) result of a chemical reaction takes place in living organisms Bioluminescence American firefly

Chemiluminescence : 

Chemiluminescence Uses detection and quantization of biomolecules in assay systems DNA sequencing using pyrosequencing Lighting objects. Chemiluminescent kites, emergency lighting, glow sticks (party decorations).
