This page discusses the various definitions of oxidation and reduction (redox) in terms of the transfer of oxygen, hydrogen, and electrons. It also explains the terms oxidizing agent and reducing agent.

Oxidation and reduction in terms of oxygen transfer

The terms oxidation and reduction can be defined in terms of the adding or removing oxygen to a compound. while this is not the most robust definition, as discussed below, it is the easiest to remember.

Oxidation and Reduction with respect to Oxygen Transfer

Oxidation is the gain of oxygen.

Reduction is the loss of oxygen.

For example, in the extraction of iron from its ore:
