In Quake 3 Arena and 4 multiplayer, the Gauntlet is a circular-saw-like melee weapon that, with the Machine Gun, is one of the weapons a player has when he spawns in. If somebody is killed with it, the announcer says Humiliation!. Some weapons can't keep up with the high damage output of the gauntlet or the close-range effect of it. 2  In Quake 4, with the blaster removed in multiplayer, the Gauntlet is your weapon if all other weapons are empty.
In chemistry, an oxidizing agent (oxidant, oxidizer) is a substance that has the ability to oxidize other substances â in other words to cause them to lose electrons. Common oxidizing agents are oxygen, hydrogen peroxide and the halogens.
A reducing agent is oxidized because it loses electrons in the redox reaction. Examples of reducing agents include the earth metals, formic acid, and sulfite compounds. Definitions ï· A reducing agent reduces other substances and lose electrons; therefore, its oxidation state will increase.
