  1. Anode is oxidizing and positive
    Cathode is reducing and negative

    *write equations/compounds with their charges/formula, not in words* :)

  4. move up on reduction potentials--> increase strength as oxidizing agent
    move down on reduction potentials--> increase strength as reducing agent

  5. O2 has a charge if -2 always except when:
    -by itself, 0
    -in peroxide, it's -1
