⚠️⚠️!!please note I want harmful effects other than corrosion and rancidity I already know those please tell other that these two if you know any!!⚠️⚠️​

Answer 1

Oxidation reactions can be defined in terms of addition of oxygen or the removal of hydrogen.

Examples: Addition of Oxygen:

(a). CuO(s) + H₂(g) → Cu(s) + H2O(l)

CuO adds oxygen to H₂; CuO is therefore the oxidizing agent or oxidant, it oxidizes the H₂ to H2O.

(b). C(s) + H2O(g) → H₂(g) + CO(g)

H2O is the oxidizing agent; it gives oxygen to carbon, which is oxidized to CO.

Answer 2

Answer:

Effects of oxidation Reaction in Everyday Life

1.1 (1) Rancidity of food.

1.2 (2) Corrosion of Metal.

Explanation:

In the the metal oxidised.It Ruins the shiny surface of metal hence, a harmful effects of Oxidation. Rusting can be a good example of Corrosion. The process in which bad smell start coming from food and its taste became bad due to oxidation of oil and fats present in food is known as Rusting. It spoils the food.
