When an atom or compound is oxidized, its properties change. For example, when an iron object undergoes oxidation, it is transformed because it has lost electrons. Unoxidized iron is a strong, structurally sound metal, while oxidized iron is a brittle, reddish powder. The diagram below illustrates what happens to an atom of iron as it is oxidization

Once iron has been oxidized, it carries a charge. Because it lost three electrons, it now has a positive charge of three. This positive three charge is represented by the number three and a positive sign (3+) written as a superscript to the right of the Iron (Fe) symbol.

Iron is very easily oxidized, which is why it's important to minimize the exposure of iron to oxygen and moisture. Iron will continue to lose electrons to oxygen as long as oxygen is present.

Oxidation-Reduction (Redox) Reactions

Most of the time, oxidation occurs in tandem with a process called reduction. Reduction is the process of gaining one
