The release of electrons is oxidation, while the reception of electrons is reduction.
Explanation:
- To form a link with other atoms, an atom loses or gains electrons. The oxidation process occurs when an atom loses electrons, while the reduction process occurs when an atom acquires electrons.
- When both processes occur at the same time, the result is a redox reaction, which is defined as reduction plus oxidation. The letters'red' and 'ox' stand for reduction and oxidation, respectively.
- The reducing agent is a species that causes other species to be reduced, whereas the oxidising agent is a species that causes other species to be oxidised.
- The redox reaction is a reaction in which electrons are exchanged between two reactants.
