"Redox"
redox
Rusting is a redox reaction, short for oxidation-reduction.
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.
In goes the gas out comes the dog pwning amen
oxidation is the taking away of an electron, while reduction is gaining and electron
Oxidation is characterized by the loss of electrons, and reduction is characterized by the gain of electrons. Since there must be an electron loser and an electron receiver, oxidation and reduction are always complimentary.
This change is called oxidation (increase of ox. state) or reduction (decrease)
It would be a positive ion, which is called an anion. (pronounced an-ion)
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.
ok im not shore but i think its called reduction
OIL RIG Oxidation is Loss Reduction is Gain... That's all I know =)
Oxidation is the loss of electrons by a molecule, atom, or ion, leading to an increase in its oxidation state or valence. Reduction is the gain of electrons by a molecule, atom, or ion, resulting in a decrease in its oxidation state or valence. These two processes often occur simultaneously in redox reactions.
