oxidisers
An oxidiser, also known as an oxidizing agent or oxidant, is a substance that causes oxidation in another substance. Oxidation is a chemical reaction that involves the loss of electrons by a molecule, atom, or ion. In an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction, the oxidiser itself is reduced, meaning it gains electrons. Common oxidisers include oxygen, halogens, and nitrates.
Oxidisers are fundamental to many chemical processes. For instance, combustion, a rapid reaction between a substance
The strength of an oxidiser is determined by its tendency to accept electrons. Stronger oxidisers readily accept
