 \huge \mathbb \red{Oxidation}

Oxidation is any chemical reaction that involves the moving of electrons. ... When iron reacts with oxygen it forms a chemical called rust because it has been oxidized (the iron has lost some electrons) and the oxygen has been reduced (the oxygen has gained some electrons).

 \huge \mathbb \pink{Reduction Process}

Reduction involves a half-reaction in which a chemical species decreases its oxidation number, usually by gaining electrons. Here, oxidation is the gain of oxygen, while reduction is the loss of oxygen. An old, less-common definition of oxidation and reduction examines the reaction in terms of protons or hydrogen.
