A toy battery-operated car. The chemical processes in your body that break down carbohydrates to produce water, carbon dioxide and energy. The ripening of fruit. It's not easy to see what all of these types of reactions have in common, but they all belong to a very important category of chemical reactions known as oxidation-reduction (or redox) reactions.

Fission is a type of radioactivity in which large nuclei spontaneously break apart into smaller nuclei.

The decay process takes time and there is value in being able to express the rate at which a process occurs. A useful concept is half-life, which is the time required for half of the starting material to change or decay. Half-lives can be calculated from measurements on the change in mass of a nuclide and the time it takes to occur.

When the element that is doing the replacing is a nonmetal, it must replace another nonmetal in a compound, and the general equation becomes: This subcategory of single-replacement reactions is called a metal replacement reaction because it is a metal that is being replaced (copper).

Such solutions are called supersaturated solutions and are not stable; given an opportunity (such as dropping a crystal of solute in the solution), the excess solute will precipitate from the solution.The figure below illustrates the above process and shows the distinction between unsaturated and saturated.
