Question

explain oxidation reaction with example

Answer 1

An oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction is a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between two species. An oxidation-reduction reaction is any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a molecule, atom, or ion changes by gaining or losing an electron. Redox reactions are common and vital to some of the basic functions of life, including photosynthesis, respiration, combustion and corrosion or rusting.

example : An classic example of oxidation is rusting. when resting happens oxygen Steels all the electrons from iron. oxygen get reduced while iron get oxidised...

hope its helpful to you if yes then mark this answer as brainliest a small blue crown is on top of the answer click that to make this answer as brainliest thank you....

Answer 2

Oxodation reaction

Addition of oxygen and removal of hydrogen is called oxidation reaction

For ex.

2Mg + O2 ------> 2MgO
