Redox
Learning Time: 5-15 hours
Content: Redox (reduction-oxidation) is a subject that examines chemical reactions based on electron transfer. This field covers the definition of oxidation and reduction, oxidation states, balancing redox equations, electrochemical series, and practical applications. The TYT focuses on basic redox reactions, while the AYT focuses on electrochemical cells. The current 2025 curriculum also covers renewable energy and environmental chemistry. Learning this topic forms the basis for energy conversion systems.
