name a use of nano-particles?
their properties depend on the atom they're made from; suncreame- can get into pores deodurant- reduce friction drugs- can easily get into small specific cells catalysts- high surface area to surface area ratio

in electrolysis, what is oxidation and reduction?
radiation is the loss of electrons at the negative electrode reduction is the gain of electrons at the positive electrode
