Question

Give 2 examples each of Oxidation Reaction and Reduction Reaction.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hey!

1st example:-

When a zinc rod is kept in a CuSO4 Solution, displacement happens and Zn undergoes oxidation and Cu will undergo reduction:-

OXIDATION:-

Zn° ----> $Zn^{2+}$ + $2^{e-}$

REDUCTION:-

$Cu^{2+} + 2^{e-}$ -----> Cu°

Second example:-

When a copper plate is immersed in AgNO3 solution, displacement happens again and this time, Ag will undergo reduction and Cu undergoes oxidation.

OXIDATION:-

Cu° ------> $Cu^{2+}$ + $2^{e-}$

REDUCTION:-

$Ag^{2+} + 2^{e-}$ ------> Ag°

I hope these examples were understandable!

Keep learning!

And, Happy earth day!
