### oxide:

Titania
* has a light yellow color and a higher index of refraction than diamond but is rather soft
  - the start of faulting and fissure eruptions, in addition to some crater-filling
* is among the largest of the moons
  - another heavily cratered moon
  - covered by many small craters, a few huge impact basins ice cliffs, and fault lines
* is the largest moon of Uranus
  - satellite of Uranus
+ Oberon: Folklore :: Characters in Shakespeare's plays
  * In the play, Oberon and Titania are arguing. Titania falls asleep. Oberon tells Puck to put a potion in her eyes. This potion will make her love the first thing she sees when she wakes. She sees a man with a donkey head. Oberon and Titania make up. All ends happily.

Yttrium oxide
* have high melting points and impart shock resistance and low expansion to glass.
* is an important starting point for inorganic compounds
  - available for special project synthesis of metal oxide superconducting compounds
  - one of the most important compounds of yttrium and accounts for the largest use
  - the most important compound of yttrium
  - used with europium in phosphors for the brilliant red colour in television tubes

### oxide:

Zinc oxide
* Find a foot deodorant containing zinc oxide and herbs.
* can dissolve in strong bases.
* forms a barrier between the baby s skin and the ammonia in the urine.
* goes yellow on heating and returns to white again on cooling.
* has anti-microbial and absorbent properties.
* influences the colour in a glaze more than any other element.
* is abrasive and zinc in the copper matrix promotes galling when mated with steel
  - added to creams to allow the cream to cover more thoroughly
  - also an effective sunblock
  - available at drug stores
  - chemical compounds
  - considered fairly nontoxic
  - easier to clean with mineral oil than soap and water
  - ideal for the nose and ears while swimming
  - the major compound used to supply zinc in the feeds of all species of animals
  - used as a white pigment in paints
* is used in calamine
  - medicine, paints, vulcanizing rubber and sunblock lotions
  - the vulcanization of rubber, preventing the rubber from becoming brittle
  - with the terephthalic acid, an organic compound, to form a molecular sieve
* natural form of the mineral zinc.
* non-irritating and very effective sun block.
* occurs in nature as the mineral zincite.
* reflects sunlight and is therefore included in some sunscreen preparations.
* semiconductor with a blue luminescence and a high optical gain to amplify light.
* thick paste that seals out air and makes the cut more comfortable
  - white cream that can be bought in any local drug store
* unique and very useful material for modern civilization.
* white solid.
* works well on the sensitive lips and nose.
+ Zinc oxide, Properties: Zinc compounds :: Oxides
  * Zinc oxide is a white solid. It does not dissolve in water. It reacts with acids to make zinc salts. It can react with water to make zinc hydroxide. It reacts with phosphoric acid to make zinc phosphate, a cement. It reacts with hydrogen sulfide to make zinc sulfide
  - Uses
  * Zinc oxide is used in the vulcanization of rubber, preventing the rubber from becoming brittle. It also protects the rubber from fungi and ultraviolet light.
  * Zinc oxide can be added to concrete to help the making and hardening of concrete. Zinc oxide is used in calamine. It can be used as a deodorant and an antibacterial cream. Zinc oxide can be used as a sunscreen
+ Zinc, Properties, Chemical properties: Chemical elements :: Transition metals
  * Zinc oxide can dissolve in strong bases. This reaction happens in some batteries that have zinc in them.
