Oxide
An oxide () is a chemical compound containing at least one oxygen atom and one other element in its chemical formula. "Oxide" itself is the dianion (anion bearing a net charge of –2) of oxygen, an O2– ion with oxygen in the oxidation state of −2. Most of the Earth's crust consists of oxides. Even materials considered pure elements often develop an oxide coating. For example, aluminium foil develops a thin skin of Al2O3 (called a passivation layer) that protects the foil from further oxidation.
Examples of use of oxide
1. The nitrogen oxide, soot and sulfur oxide emissions from the large ships are linked to burgeoning asthma, respiratory and cardiac problems.
2. The Arabian Zinc Oxide Factory produces all three.
3. Other toxic materials include cadmium, lead oxide, barium and mercury.
4. Almost of a fifth of the batteries recycled in Greece contained lead oxide, a toxic material.
5. The leak has been contained entirely within Sellafield‘s thermal oxide reprocessing plant, known as Thorp.
