Answer:

Reduction can be considered as the removal of oxygen, the addition of hydrogen, or the gain of electrons. Removal of oxygen: Metal ores which are oxides are reduced to the metal - this is how iron is made from iron ore. The reducing agent is carbon monoxide. ... The hydrogen gets ionized by water

Oxidation occurs when a reactant loses electrons during the reaction. Reduction occurs when a reactant gains electrons during the reaction. This often occurs when metals are reacted with acid
