ability to oxidize other substances (cause them to lose electrons) are said to be oxidative or oxidizing, and are known as oxidizing agents, oxidants,...

An oxidizing acid is a Brønsted acid that is a strong oxidizing agent. Most Brønsted acids can act as oxidizing agents, because the acidic proton can...

group) by a variety of nucleophiles. NO+, e.g. as NOBF4, is a strong oxidizing agent: vs. ferrocene/ferrocenium, [NO]+ in CH2Cl2 solution has a redox potential...

can be both reducing or oxidizing agents. Hydrogen gas is a reducing agent when it reacts with non-metals and an oxidizing agent when it reacts with metals...

can be fully oxidized to carbon dioxide with a strong oxidizing agent under acidic conditions. The amount of oxygen required to oxidize an organic compound...

precursor of chlorate salts. It is a strong acid (pKa ≈ −2.7) and an oxidizing agent. Chloric acid is thermodynamically unstable with respect to disproportionation...

replaced with oxidizing agent. Many different substances have been used as depolarizers; the most notable are listed below. These oxidize the hydrogen...

illustrates the three elements a fire needs to ignite: heat, fuel, and an oxidizing agent (usually oxygen). A fire naturally occurs when the elements are present...
