Manganese :: Manganese (n.) An element obtained by reduction of its oxide, as a hard, grayish white metal, fusible with difficulty, but easily oxidized. Its ores occur abundantly in nature as the minerals pyrolusite, manganite, etc. Symbol Mn. Atomic weight 54.8..

Silver :: Silver (n.) A soft white metallic element, sonorous, ductile, very malleable, and capable of a high degree of polish. It is found native, and also combined with sulphur, arsenic, antimony, chlorine, etc., in the minerals argentite, proustite, pyrargyrite, ceragyrite, etc. Silver is one of the noble metals, so-called, not being easily oxidized, and is used for coin, jewelry, plate, and a great variety of articles. Symbol Ag (Argentum). Atomic weight 107.7. Specific gravity 10.5..

Reduce :: Reduce (n.) To bring to the metallic state by separating from impurities; hence, in general, to remove oxygen from; to deoxidize; to combine with, or to subject to the action of, hydrogen; as, ferric iron is reduced to ferrous iron; or metals are reduced from their ores; -- opposed to oxidize..

Ozone :: Ozone (n.) A colorless gaseous substance (O/) obtained (as by the silent discharge of electricity in oxygen) as an allotropic form of oxygen, containing three atoms in the molecule. It is a streng oxidizer, and probably exists in the air, though by he ordinary tests it is liable to be confused with certain other substances, as hydrogen dioxide, or certain oxides of nitrogen. It derives its name from its peculiar odor, which resembles that of weak chlorine..

Inoxidizable :: Inoxidizable (a.) Incapable of being oxidized; as, gold and platinum are inoxidizable in the air..

Hydrogenize :: Hydrogenize (v. t.) To combine with hydrogen; to treat with, or subject to the action of, hydrogen; to reduce; -- contrasted with oxidize..

Deoxygenize :: Deoxygenize (v. t.) To deoxidize.

Gossan :: Gossan (n.) Decomposed rock, usually reddish or ferruginous (owing to oxidized pyrites), forming the upper part of a metallic vein..

Inoxidize :: Inoxidize (v. i.) To prevent or hinder oxidation, rust, or decay; as, inoxidizing oils or varnishes..

Peroxidized :: Peroxidized (imp. & p. p.) of Peroxidiz.

Oxidizer :: Oxidizer (n.) An agent employed in oxidation, or which facilitates or brings about combination with oxygen; as, nitric acid, chlorine, bromine, etc., are strong oxidizers..

Peroxidize :: Peroxidize (v. t.) To oxidize to the utmost degree, so as to form a peroxide..

Deoxidize :: Deoxidize (v. t.) To deprive of oxygen; to reduce from the state of an oxide.

Disoxidate :: Disoxidate (v. t.) To deoxidate; to deoxidize.

Deoxidate :: Deoxidate (v. t.) To deoxidize.

Deoxidizer :: Deoxidizer (n.) That which removes oxygen; hence, a reducing agent; as, nascent hydrogen is a deoxidizer..

Oxidizement :: Oxidizement (n.) Oxidation.

Oxidizable :: Oxidizable (a.) Capable of being oxidized.

Oxidator :: Oxidator (n.) An oxidizer.

Oxidize :: Oxidize (v. t.) To remove hydrogen from (anything), as by the action of oxygen; as, to oxidize alcohol so as to form aldehyde..
