Enviornmental Conditions needed for Oxidation to Occur?


Hey guys,

I was wondering if anyone knew of the enviromental conditions needed for oxidation to occur? I mean generally...do there need to be high temperatures? Must there be an excess in one of the reagents?

If you have answers to ethanal to ethanol specifically, that would be great, thank you :)

That's a very broad question and depends entirely on what your talking about, which I'm going to guess is ethanol to ethanal because you posted about the same thing right above this. Please don't post twice about the same thing on the board.
