Hello list,
For those of you who have ordered the Meteorites: A-Z poster it has been
delayed in going to press. We look for the new release date to be the
25th. All those who put in an order for one will be seeing a ship date
then.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Strictly speaking oxidation is the loss of electrons. The electrons

the reduction part. So to undergo oxidation,
