Oxidation-Reduction Reactions: Small Group Learning by Innovating Science (Materials for 5 Groups of Students)

• Students, through a series of experiments, will investigate the chemical changes and physical expression of redox reactions
• A colorless solution when reduced becomes a deeply-colored solution when oxidized
• Students will learn how to write balanced equations for each step of the process
• This kit contains enough material for 5 groups of students
• Teacher's manual and student study guide copymasters are included

The term oxidation can mean the chemical combination of a substance with oxygen and reduction can be the removal of oxygen from a compound. When oxygen re-acts with any other element (except fluorine) it acquires electrons from that element. The element that donated the electrons is said to be reduced.
