Question

What is meant by redox reaction?​

Answer 1

oxidation-reduction reaction, also called redox reaction, any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a participating chemical species changes. The term covers a large and diverse body of processes.

Answer 2

Answer:

when oxidization reaction and reduction reaction together take place in an chemical reaction, the reaction is called an redox reaction (redox-reduction +oxidation).

Explanation:

E.g:

In the following chemical equation,

CuO +H2 ----------------> Cu +H2O

The above reaction is an example of a redox reaction,

As copper oxide is reduced by the loss of oxygen ions and Hygrogen is oxidized by ganing oxygen.
