Why results of ROS flurescence are negative as there was no bacteria within?

Hello. I am working on ROS production of two systems: system A is cerium oxide and hydrogen peroxide, system B is cerium oxide nanoparticle, hydrogen peroxide and potassium bromide. I did some...

Why aren't most metal oxides insoluble in water?

Why BaO (s) + H2O(l) ---> Ba 2+(aq) + 2 OH - (aq) if Oxygen loves owning all the electrons, why would it bind to hydrogen which competes with Oxygen for electron ownership more so than...

Why chloride turns into chlorine gas in a Downs cell?

I imagine the battery drives the graphite into a carbocation, then chloride is oxidized to donate the electron to the carbocation, but what pushes the lost electrons of chloride to be shared...
