1 Anemometer: A tool used by meteorologists to measure wind speeds. 2  Speed: How fast or slowly something is moving.  Revolutions per minute (rpm): How many times something goes around in a complete circle, or rotates, in one minute. The anemometer you will make in this exercise measures the wind speed in rpm.
Electron acceptors participate in electron-transfer reactions. In this context, the oxidizing agent is called an electron acceptor and the reducing agent is called an electron donor. A classic oxidizing agent is the ferrocenium ion Fe(C. 5H.
By Andrew Zimmerman Jones. Definition: An electron is a fundamental particle, which means it cannot be broken into smaller particles. Electrons may be bound in the electron cloud surrounding an atomic nucleus, or may break free from the cloud as a free electron..
