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.
