The substance will lose electrons to the oxidising agent. It is impossible to be more precise without knowing the substances involved, but you may be thinking of an explosion.

Oxidation takes place at anode and reduction at cathode?
Oxidation takes place at anode and reduction at cathode - yes, it is correct.
Can oxidation or reduction takes place alone why or why not what are such reactions called answer in chemistry?
These reactions are called redox reactions.Isolated reduction/oxidation is not possible.
What happens when electrons are gained or lost?
Gain or electron means reduction energy is not gained but given off during this and also when oxidation takes place the same thing thing happens' energy is released when a redox reaction takes place(ie both oxidation & reduction)
What is an oxidising electrode?
according to me anode should be oxidizing electrode as oxidation reaction takes place on anode
When something takes place?
It means it happens
What happens when gain of oxygen takes place?
A loss of electrons occur, an oxidation reaction.
What happens if oxidation takes place inside an electric bulb?
THen the bulb won't work anymore, cuz its oxidized.
Oxidation takes place at anode and reduction at cathode?
Oxidation takes place at anode and reduction at cathode - yes, it is correct.
What happens when nutrients and oxygen combine inside your cell?
Oxidation of nutrients takes place to release energy in our cells. This is called respiration.
What do metals do when they combine with non metals like oxygen?
oxidation takes place (rusting)
What kind of oxidation takes place when oxygen and glucose combine?
It is called aerobic respiration, oxidation is usage of oxygen .
Can oxidation or reduction takes place alone why or why not what are such reactions called answer in chemistry?
These reactions are called redox reactions.Isolated reduction/oxidation is not possible.
What are the substances released when oxidation takes place in the cell?
water, carbon dioxide and oxygen
Which chemical reaction takes place while smoking?
Oxidation (slow burning of the tobacco)
What occurs at the cathode of a galvanic cell?
An oxidation half-reaction
What happens when electrons are gained or lost?
Gain or electron means reduction energy is not gained but given off during this and also when oxidation takes place the same thing thing happens' energy is released when a redox reaction takes place(ie both oxidation & reduction)
Does respiration occur in the mitchondria?
Biological oxidation takes place in the mitochondria. Respiration takes place in the respiratory system. It is mainly composed of the trachea and bronchial tree and pair of lungs.
