Question

how is oxidation differ from reduction​

Answer 1

Answer:

Heyy mate.... Here is the answer...

Explanation:

Reduction and oxidation occur simultaneously in a type of chemical reaction called a reduction-oxidation or redox reaction.

The oxidized species loses electrons, while the reduced species gains electrons.

Despite the name, oxygen need not be present in an oxidation reaction.

Oxidation vs Reduction

Oxidation occurs when a reactant loses electrons during the reaction. Reduction occurs a reactant gains electrons during the reaction. This often occurs when metals are reacted with acid.
