Impacted nomenclature:
- ~~positron~~ negatron - the antiparticle that annihilates in contact with an electron
- ~~electronegativity~~ electropositivity - property typically associated with nonmetallic elements, specially fluorine and oxygen.
- ~~electropositivity~~ electronegativity - counterpart of the above that nobody cares about
- ~~reduction~~ elevation - half-reaction where a substance retrieves more electrons, thus "elevating" its charge; the opposite of oxidation
- ~~oxidation-reduction~~ oxidation-elevation - the full reaction. Also called "elevation-oxidation".
- ~~redox~~ elox - acronym for the above.
