Question

Q.3- Explain any five chemical reactions in which oxidation and reduction takes place simultaneously.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Oxidation is a losing of electrons and Reduction is a gaining of electrons.

The reaction in which oxidation reduction taking place simultaneously are called as Redox reaction.

For example,

Cuo+HH →Cu+H2O

In this examples copper oxide is reduced and acts as oxidizing agent and H2

is oxidized and acts as reducing agent.these are the reaction in which oxidation and reduction are occurs in a same compound.

Answer 2

Answer:

The reaction which involves simultaneous oxidation and reduction is called an oxidation-reduction or redox reaction. In a redox reaction, one reactant gets oxidised while the other gets reduced during a reaction.
