Are you feeling the reduction-oxidation?

2. I took my car back to the dealer, said “This thing is almost new!”

3. “Just take a look at that fender—

too far.

It means reduction-oxidation.
That’s a chem. abbreviation

7. That’s what’s got you down…
…Nearly driving you insane

8. It happens when electrons are lost and gained.

Now oxidation is a loss of electrons e- e- e- e- e- e- e- e- e- e- e- e-
And reduction is a gain e-

11. You see, oxidation and reduction always happen as a pair.
But that’s just the beginning…
You see, oxidation and reduction always happen as a pair.
…There’s lots more to explain

12. Oxidation and reduction always happen as a pair
If you got oxidation,
reduction must be there

20. Until you seal it from the air
REDOX will still take place
