Redox reactions can be recognized, as the change of the oxidation number of some of the atoms. If the oxidation number of an element increases, then the element is oxidized. If it is decreased, then the element is reduced.

The oxidation number is in the range between -7 and +7. It shows the number of electrons lost with regards to the neutral atom.
The reducing agent is an element or compound that can lose an electron (undergo oxidation).
The oxidizing agent is an element or compound that can gain an electron (undergo reduction).
