Oksüdatsiooniprotsess is the Estonian term for oxidation process. Oxidation is a chemical reaction that involves the loss of electrons by a substance. In essence, it is the increase in the oxidation state of an atom, molecule, or ion. This process often occurs when a substance reacts with oxygen, hence the name, but it can also happen with other oxidizing agents.
During oxidation, a substance loses electrons, while another substance gains them, a process known as reduction.
Oxidation plays a crucial role in many natural and industrial processes. For instance, respiration in living
