👉 Electropositive is a concept in chemistry that describes substances that are more positively charged than their neutral counterparts. These substances have a positive charge on their outermost electron shell, which makes them able to attract and hold electrons from other substances with high potential energy. Examples of electropositive substances include metals (like iron or copper) and some organic compounds like carboxylic acids. Electropositivity is important in many applications because it allows for the creation of strong electrochemical reactions that
