Redox Basics
Redox Basics
A redox reaction is a reaction where both oxidation and reduction processes occur simultaneously.
Oxidation and reduction usually take place together.
Oxidation occurs when there is a gain of oxygen, loss of hydrogen and loss of electrons.
Reduction occurs when there is a loss of oxygen, gain of hydrogen and gain of electrons.
Oxidation state increases when oxidation occurs.
Oxidation state decreases when reduction occurs.
Oxidising and Reducing agent
Oxidising and Reducing agent
Oxidising agent is a chemical substance, which causes another substance to be oxidised while itself is being reduced.
Reducing agent is a chemical substance, which causes another substance to be reduced while itself is being oxidised.
