Definition of redox reaction
A redox reaction is a chemical reaction where oxidation and reduction occur simultaneously
Redox reaction
Initially refers to a reaction involving oxygen
The term redox is derived from two words which are RED and OX
REDOX: Red stand for reduction and Ox stand for oxidation
Redox reactions (Oxidation and Reduction Reactions) (1)
Involve gain or loss of oxygen
Redox reactions (Oxidation and Reduction Reactions) (2)
Involve gain or loss of hydrogen
Redox reactions (Oxidation and Reduction Reactions) (3)
Involve the transfer of electrons
Redox reactions (Oxidation and Reduction Reactions) (4)
Involve the change in oxidation number
Oxidation reaction in terms of gain and loss of oxygen
Takes place when a reactant gains oxygen
Reduction reaction in terms of gain and loss of oxygen
Takes place when a reactant loses oxygen
