Reduction Half-Reaction: MnO4-(aq) → Mn2+(aq)
Oxidation Half-Reaction: Cl-(aq) → Cl2(g)
oxidation is when you lose electrons i have a cool little thing O-oxidation I-is L-losing electrons R-reduction I- is G- gannning electrons OIL RIG
Oxidation literally means loss of electrons and there are no other words for the state
Oxidation number of F is -1.Oxidation number of O is +2.
* To be an oxidation reaction electrons have to be lost. * Any reaction that results in electrons being lost can be described as an oxidation reaction.
An oxidation-reaction involve a transfer of electrons.
Oxidation describes the loss of electrons by a molecule, atom or ion and if it helps you more

No, oxidation is the loss of electrons.

Oxidation is the loss of electrons or an increase in oxidation state by a molecule, atom or ion. Reduction is the gain of electrons or a decrease in oxidation state by a molecule, atom, or ion.
a reversible chemical reaction in which one reaction is an oxidation and the reverse is a reduction
Oxidation number of F is -1.Oxidation number of O is +2.
* To be an oxidation reaction electrons have to be lost. * Any reaction that results in electrons being lost can be described as an oxidation reaction.
Well it has less electrons than it had before. That is the definition of oxidation. The loss of electrons is oxidation. The gain of electrons is reduction.
oxidation..........
Electrons.
When a substance gains an electron or electrons, this is known as "reduction". For every reduction reaction, there is also an oxidation reaction. So, whatever substance "gave" the electrons, underwent oxidation.
