Question

a. What is the reaction called when
oxidation and reduction take place
simultaneously? Explain with one
example.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The reaction in which oxidation reduction taking place simultaneously are called as Redox reaction. In this examples copper oxide is reduced and acts as oxidizing agent and H2 is oxidized and acts as reducing agent. these are the reaction in which oxidation and reduction are occurs in a same compound

Answer 2

Answer:

when  oxidation and reduction take place  simultaneously, the reaction is called an oxidation-reduction or redox reaction.

Example: CuO + H2→ Cu + H2O

i. In the reaction, CuO loses oxygen atom which means that reduction of CuO(copper oxide) takes place.

ii. H2 (hydrogen) takes up oxygen atom.

iii. As a result, formation of water takes place. This means hydrogen undergoes oxidation.
