Question

Define oxidation in terms of electron

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:Oxidation is the loss of electrons during a reaction by a molecule, atom or ion. Oxidation occurs when the oxidation state of a molecule, atom or ion is increased. The opposite process is called reduction, which occurs when there is a gain of electrons or the oxidation state of an atom, molecule, or ion decreases.

Please mark as brainliest and have a great day:)

Answer 2

Oxidation is loss of electrons (OIL RIG). Therefore, an oxidizing agent takes electrons from that other substance. Therefore, an oxidizing agent must gain electrons.
