what is oxidation and explain

Answers

Answered by saurabhsingh54

Oxidation is any chemical reaction that involves the moving of electrons. ... When iron reacts with oxygen it forms a chemical called rust because it has been oxidized (the iron has lost some electrons) and the oxygen has been reduced (the oxygen has gained some electrons). Oxidation is the opposite of reduction.

Heya....

Here's your answer.....

Oxidation occurs when an atom, molecule, or ion loses one or more electrons in a chemical reaction. When oxidation occurs, the oxidation state of the chemical species increases. Oxidation doesn't necessarily involve oxygen! Originally, the term was used when oxygen caused electron loss in a reaction.

Thanks...!!!
