	Oxide - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Oxides are characterized by a redistribution of electrons, in which the oxygen atoms have a net surplus of electrons and the other atoms a net lack.
		Oxide salts are generally insoluble in water, though some react with it.
		The oxides of the chemical elements in their highest oxidation state are predictable and the chemical formula can be derived from the number of valence electrons for that element.

		Inhalation of nitrous oxide directly from a whipped cream charger or a tank poses serious health risks, as it can cause the lungs to collapse from high levels of pressure, forcing air into the chest cavity, and can cause frostbite since the gas is very cold when released.
		This is unlikely, as auto-grade nitrous oxide is mixed with hydrogen sulfide and would cause significant deleterious effects if inhaled — such arrests are made out of ignorance of the specifics of 'inhalable' nitrous oxide, or as a ploy to rid the public streets of potential illegal street racing via the misapplication of existing laws.

		In general, oxides are the most important compounds with which the chemist has to deal, a study of their composition and properties permitting a valuable comparative investigation of the elements.
		Some basic oxides yield hydrogen peroxide with acids, others yield oxygen (these also liberate chlorine from hydrochloric acid), and may combine with lower acidic oxides to form salts of the normal basic oxide with the higher acidic oxide.
		Mixed anhydrides are oxides, which yield with water two acids, or are salts composed of a basic and acidic oxide of the same metal.

		Oxides are commonly classified as acidic or basic oxides or anhydrides.
		Some metal oxides do not react with water but are basic in that they react with an acid to form a salt and water.

	Ethylene Oxide (Cicads 54, 2003)
		Based on a survey of hospitals using ethylene oxide as a sterilizing agent, conducted in April 1994, the amount of ethylene oxide used as a sterilant was estimated to be 40 tonnes/year.
		Since ethylene oxide is formed during the metabolism of ethylene, a natural body constituent, endogenous as well as exogenous sources of ethylene and ethylene oxide contribute to background alkylation of proteins such as haemoglobin and albumin, as well as DNA (Bolt, 1996).
		In vivo exposure to ethylene oxide induced gene mutation at the hypoxanthine phosphoribosyl transferase (Hprt) locus in mouse and rat splenic T-lymphocytes; sister chromatid exchange was induced in lymphocytes from rabbit, rat, and monkey, in bone marrow cells from mouse and rat, and in rat spleen.
