So comrades, welcome to the lecture. What I am going to donow, we’re going to begin with an experiment to illustratethis point that the oxygen molecule, O2, has unpairedelectrons.Now we’re outside just to show you the reactivity of thislovely stuff here, liquid oxygen. So you can see wonderfulliquid oxygen is a nice blue colour. So over here on the tablewe’ve got a tin tray which we’re going to use to contain theexperiment that I’m going to show you next. So we’ve gotour favourite liquid oxygen. Strongly oxidising; very, veryreactive, and here I’ve got some cotton wool. So this is thesame stuff we use to take make-up off, perhaps our partnersor our girlfriends or our wives, and this is the same stuff weuse to wipe our babies’ bums.Oxygen is an inte...
