oxidize
(oxidizes, oxidizing, oxidized)
Note: in BRIT, also use 'oxidise'
When a substance is oxidized or when it oxidizes, it changes chemically because of the effect of oxygen on it.
Aluminium is rapidly oxidized in air...
The original white lead pigments have oxidized and turned black.
VERB: be V-ed, V
oxidize
or oxidise '?ks?d??z
¦ verb combine or cause to combine with oxygen.
?Chemistry undergo or cause to undergo a reaction in which electrons are lost to another substance or molecule. The opposite of reduce.
Derivatives
oxidizable adjective

oxidize
v. a.
Oxidate, calcine, convert into an oxide.
Wikipedia
Redox
Redox (reduction–oxidation, RED-oks, REE-doks) is a type of chemical reaction in which the oxidation states of substrate change. Oxidation is the loss of electrons or an increase in the oxidation state, while reduction is the gain of electrons or a decrease in the oxidation state.
There are two classes of redox reactions:
- Electron-transfer – Only one (usually) electron flows from the reducing agent to the oxidant. This type of redox reaction is often discussed in terms of redox couples and electrode potentials.
- Atom transfer – An atom transfers from one substrate to another. For example, in the rusting of iron, the oxidation state of iron atoms increases as the iron converts to an oxide, and simultaneously the oxidation state of oxygen decreases as it accepts electrons released by the iron. Although oxidation reactions are commonly associated with the formation of oxides, other chemical species can serve the same function. In hydrogenation, C=C (and other) bonds are reduced by transfer of hydrogen atoms.
Examples of use of oxidize
1. But aluminum can oxidize, leaving pits and white residue.
2. Tavzes is working on a new technique to synthesize the enzymatic action of another fungus, white rot fungus, to oxidize the stains and prepare the collection for display.
3. The patched areas are clearly visible, as the new foam has not had time to oxidize and yellow in the sun like the rest of the tank.
