Oxidation in terms of oxidation number?
Oxidation number increases when the atom is oxidised, and decreases when it is reduced
What is the oxidation number of nh2 oh?
Ox(N)= -3
The chemical reaction of oxygen and another substance is called?
oxidation in molecular terms, but in more general terms, combustion, aka burning!
What is the reaction between a metal's surface and oxygen called?
When anything combines with oxygen, the process is called oxidation. When iron oxidizes, it forms rust. In other metals, oxidation as well as other chemical changes can be referred to as tarnish.
What is an oxidation reaction?
A reaction in which an atom loses 1 or more electrons. the attachment between atoms resulting in atoms sharing one or more pairs of electrons

Define oxidation and reduction in terms of hydrogen transfer?
Oxidation and reduction in terms of hydrogen transferOxidation is loss of hydrogen.Reduction is gain of hydrogen.
What does oxidation mean in terms of electrons?
Oxidation describes the loss of electrons by a molecule, atom or ion and if it helps you more
Oxidation and oxygenation are the same process and the terms can be used interchangabel?
No. Oxidation is a redox reaction that characterizes a loss of electrons whereas Oxygenation is the addition of oxygen molecules.
What is the difference between carbonation and oxidation?
In lesser terms, oxidation is when a rock or mineral of some sort interacts with oxygen and carbonation is when a rock or mineral interacts with carbon or carbon dioxide.

What is Fe and Fe2o3 in terms of chemistry?
The first Fe represents an iron atom in the 0 oxidation state while the Fe in Fe2O3 represents iron ion in the +2 oxidation state
What kind of chemical reaction is the burning of magnesium in oxygen?
it is the oxidation of Magnesium into Magnesium oxide which appears as a white powder.That is classified as a redox reaction, a term which is a contraction of reduction-oxidation. The magnesium is oxidized and the oxygen is reduced. The terms refer to the transfer of electrons. Electrons have a negative charge, so a recipient of electrons, such as oxygen is reduced in the sense that its charge becomes negative.
In terms of oxidation number of nitrogen?
Nitrogen typically forms chemical bonds in which it either gains or shares 3 electrons. So 3 is the number, or more precisely -3, since gaining electrons gives a negative charge.
