Chemical Reactions

 

Chemical reactions proceed in accordance with the basic lows in nature for preservation of the mass and energy of matter . Classification of inorganic reactions can be done on the basis of different principles.

Everyday example

Oxidation-reduction reactions have many far-reaching applications in our life. Some of these applications are so common, that we take them for granted; others are not so obvious. The following are just a few examples of oxidation-reduction reactions.
