Question

define oxidation and reduction in terms of electronic concept

Answer 1

Oxidation and reduction are two types of chemical reactions that often work together. Oxidation and reduction reactions involve an exchange of electrons between reactants. For many students, the confusion occurs when attempting to identify which reactant was oxidized and which reactant was reduced.

Answer 2

Oxidation is the gain of oxygen,realese of hydrogen and increase in oxidation number.Reduction is the realese of oxygen,gain of hydrogen and decrease in oxidation number.These can be form during the electrochemical series of electrodes by using a battery.
