How do you determine if a reaction is an oxidation-reduction reaction?

An oxidation-reduction reaction can be determined by looking for changes in the oxidation states of the elements involved. If an element loses electrons (oxidation) and another gains electrons (reduction), it is likely an oxidation-reduction reaction.


True or false the burning of wood is an example of an oxidation-reduction reaction?

True. The burning of wood involves the oxidation of wood (losing electrons) by oxygen in the air, resulting in the release of energy in the form of heat and light. This is a classic example of an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction.


What is a redox reaction Give an example?

A redox (oxidation-reduction) reaction involves the transfer of electrons between reactants. For example, the reaction between iron (Fe) and oxygen (O2) to form iron oxide (Fe2O3) is a redox reaction. In this reaction, iron atoms lose electrons (oxidation) while oxygen atoms gain electrons (reduction).


How do you figure out if a reaction is an oxidation or reduction reaction?

OIL RIG Oxidation is Loss Reduction is Gain... That's all I know =)


What happens during a reduction/oxidation reaction?

An oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction is a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between two species. An oxidation-reduction reaction is any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a molecule, atom, or ion changes by gaining or losing an electron


Mixing baking soda with vinegar is an example of an oxidation-reduction reaction. true or false?

True


The reaction CuO plus CO yields Co2 plus Cu is an example of oxidation or reduction or both or neither?

The reaction CuO + CO → CO2 + Cu is an example of reduction because copper(II) oxide (CuO) gains electrons to form copper (Cu). Reduction is the gain of electrons by a species.


Part of a reaction that involves only oxidation or reduction is a?

It's not entirely clear what the question is asking... but oxidation involves the loss of electrons from an atom or ion, and reduction involves the gain of electrons. The other parts of a redox (reduction-oxidation) reaction may involve atoms forming and breaking bonds, but the oxidation or reduction part is just about losing or gaining electrons. You might be talking about what is called a "half-reaction." A half-reaction is the part of the reaction that is only either the oxidation step or the reduction step. Neither is a complete reaction, but put together the two half-reactions give the overall reactions. In the oxidation half-reaction, electrons come out as products, and in the reduction half-reaction electrons go in as reactants. Remember: OIL RIG Oxidation Is Loss; Reduction Is Gain.


Is oxidation-reduction the reaction that burning wood in a fireplace generate heat and light in the form of flames?

Yes, burning wood in a fireplace is an example of an oxidation-reduction reaction. During this process, the wood (organic compound) is oxidized by oxygen in the air, releasing heat and light energy in the form of flames.
