Oxygen is important in the oxidation of glucose because it can be oxidized to form carbon dioxide. Oxidation of glucose involves the reaction of oxygen with glucose in a process called respiration. This gives a product of water, carbon dioxide and energy which is stored as ATP.
Oxidation involves the addition of oxygen.
Any specie that undergoes oxidation, is a reducing agent and it is said to be oxidized.
Oxygen is oxidized to form carbon dioxide and water.
beacause all the elements in period 3 has different valence electrons hence you look at the first element in period 3 is sodium which has a valence electron of 1 when you go across the period to the right their valence electron decreases to be negative
