Question

what do you understand by redox reactions ? Explain oixdation and reduction in terms of loss or gain of election.​

Answer 1

Redox is a type of chemical reaction in which the oxidation states of atoms are changed. Redox reactions are characterized by the actual or formal transfer of electrons between chemical species, most often with one species undergoing oxidation while another species undergoes reduction.

Oxidation is the loss of electrons. Reduction is the gain of electrons. Oxidation and reduction always occur together, even though they can be written as separate chemical equations.

hope it helpsss uuu frnd

Answer 2

Answer:

Redox reactions involve the transfer of electrons between two chemical species.

• The reaction in which electron is gained is called a reduction reaction and
• the reaction in which electron is lost is called oxidation reaction.
