diseases‚ especially cancer. ANTIOXIDANTS are molecules that can donate an electron to another molecule that has an unpaired electron‚ AKA a free radical.. By donating an electron‚ antioxidants help stop the chemical reaction called oxidation. Think of rust- that’s an oxidation reaction. So basically‚ what antioxidants are important for is to help keep your body from rusting (aging). Are We Receiving the Nutrients We Need? Are all Supplements created equal?

In the introduction of the reading of Estelle B. Freedman she starts by bringing up an article by Arthur S. Link on the Progressive movement and looked on some other groups that were advocating social justice.

complex reactions and reaction sequences‚ where raw materials react together to give the product. Such chemical process often releases energy‚ in the form of heat‚ and the reaction is described as exothermic. Many of these reactions may also evolve gases at high rates‚ and could cause reactor over-pressure. Thermal runaway reaction Runaway reactions are thermally unstable reactions where the heat of reaction can raise the temperature of the reactants sufficiently to accelerate the reaction rate out
