Best Answer

2H2O ==> 2H2 + O2
Oxidation number of H on the left is 1+ and on the right it is zero. H has been reduced.
Oxidation number of O on the left is 2- and on the right it is zero. O has been oxidized.
YES, this is a redox reaction.

i can't really read that reaction but! if there is an element by itself in either the reactant or the product side of the reaction QUICKLY think REDOX because the oxidation states for ANY element is 0 by themselves and when they form compounds they either oxidize or reduce to their oxidation state hope i helped
