Oxidation is the process of losing electrons. Some atoms or compounds are easily oxidized while others are not. Metals are all easily oxidized; nonmetals are not. Oxidation often occurs with reduction.

Oxidation is a process involving the following processes:

1. Addition of Oxygen

2. Loss of Hydrogen

3. Removal of electrons/ delectronation

4. Increase in oxidation number

Answer:

  • Oxidation is any chemical reaction that involves the moving of electrons. Specifically, it means the substance that gives away electrons is oxidized. Normally, this is a reaction between oxygen and a substance such as iron.
  • Oxidation is the opposite of reduction. A reduction-reaction always comes together with an oxidation-reaction. Oxidation and reduction together are called redox (reduction and oxidation). Oxygen does not have to be present in a reaction for it to be a redox-reaction.
  • Oxidation is the loss of electrons.
