Everyday Examples - Bike Rust

Use everyday examples. A great question to have at the end of your lecture would be ‘What is reduced when my bike rusts?’ They might understand that their bike rusts, but what is reduced? Oxygen and water are reduced. But we don’t see the reduction, we just see the iron changing. You have done your job well if someone asks the question ‘What is reduced when my bike is oxidised?’
