During beta-oxidation, fatty acid molecules are broken down by removing two-carbon units from the carboxyl end of a fatty acid molecule to produce acetyl-CoA.

The cause of the climactic transition has been unclear. Now a research team from China finds evidence that atmospheric oxidation led to Mars being cold and bipolar in its early history.

oxidation is the loss of electrons reduction is the gain of electrons Balance the half equation for the formation of aluminium during electrolysis: Al 3+ + e-→ Al. The balanced half equation is ...

Foods which contain edible oils will spoil once exposed to oxygen from the air due to oxidation reactions. This chemical change results in a bad flavour and smell from the food. If left exposed to ...
