Question

explain the following in terms of games or loss oxygen with two example each oxidation and reduction

Answer 1

Oxidation is defined as the reaction in which the gain of oxygen will take place in the process and the reduction is defined as the reaction in which the loss of oxygen will take place.

The examples of oxidation are as follows:2Cu + O2 -> 2CuO, 2H2 + O2 -> 2H2O. The examples of reduction are as follows:ZnO + C -> Zn + Co, CuO + Zn -> Cu + H2O.
