    Non-financial assets, such as land and buildings, may also be included. For example, dictionary definitions of money include "wealth reckoned in terms of money" and "persons or interests possessing or controlling great wealth", [8] neither of which correspond to the economic definition.

    Also called resource cost advantage. The ability of a party (whether an individual, firm, or country) to produce a greater quantity of a good, product, or service than competitors using the same amount of resources. absorption The total demand for all final marketed goods and services by all economic agents resident in an economy, regardless of the origin of the goods and services themselves ...

  4. Oxidoreductase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidoreductase

    For example, an enzyme that catalyzed this reaction would be an oxidoreductase: A – + B → A + B – In this example, A is the reductant (electron donor) and B is the oxidant (electron acceptor). In biochemical reactions, the redox reactions are sometimes more difficult to see, such as this reaction from glycolysis:

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidizing_agent

    The international pictogram for oxidizing chemicals. Dangerous goods label for oxidizing agents. An oxidizing agent (also known as an oxidant, oxidizer, electron recipient, or electron acceptor) is a substance in a redox chemical reaction that gains or "accepts"/"receives" an electron from a reducing agent (called the reductant, reducer, or electron donor).

    Example of a reduction–oxidation reaction between sodium and chlorine, with the OIL RIG mnemonic [1] Redox (/ ˈ r ɛ d ɒ k s / RED-oks, / ˈ r iː d ɒ k s / REE-doks, reduction–oxidation [2] or oxidation–reduction [3]: 150 ) is a type of chemical reaction in which the oxidation states of the reactants change.

    It is therefore important to know to what exact definition does refer the value of a reduction potential for a given biochemical redox process reported at pH = 7, and to correctly understand the relationship used. Is it simply: = calculated at pH 7 (with or without corrections for the activity coefficients),

  9. Redox gradient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redox_gradient

    A redox gradient is a series of reduction-oxidation reactions sorted according to redox potential. [4] [5] The redox ladder displays the order in which redox reactions occur based on the free energy gained from redox pairs.
