Oxidation description |

Redox (short for reductionoxidation reaction) (pronunciation: redoks or reedoks) is a chemical reaction in which the oxidation states of atoms are changed. Any such reaction involves both a reduction process and a complementary oxidation process, two key concepts involved with electron transfer processes. Redox reactions include all chemical reactions in which atoms have their oxidation state changed; in general, redox reactions involve the transfer of electrons between chemical species. The chemical species from which the electron is stripped is said to have been oxidized, while the chemical species to which the electron is added is said to have been reduced. It can be explained in simple terms:* Oxidation is the loss of electrons or an increase in oxidation state by a molecule, atom, or ion. * Reduction is the gain of electrons or a decrease in oxidation state by a molecule, atom, or ion.As an example, during the combustion of wood, oxygen from the air is reduced, gaining electrons f |
