oxidation
An algebraic increase in the oxidation number; may correspond to a loss of electrons.
2 of 7
reactivity series
a list of metals in order of reactivity
3 of 7
reduction
The complete transfer of one or more electrons to a molecular entity (also called "electronation"), and, more generally, the reverse of the processes described under oxidation
4 of 7
electrolysis
Changing the chemical structure of a compound using electrical energy.

extracted
Extractions are a way to separate a desired substance when it is mixed with others. The mixture is brought into contact with a solvent in which the substance of interest is soluble, but the other substances present are insoluble.
6 of 7
malleable
Elements in the second column (from the left) of the periodic table all fall into this series. These elements are in general white, differing by shades of color or casts; they are malleable, extrudable and machinable. These elements may be made in
