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.
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.
Electrons are transferred from one reactant (reducing agent) to another (oxidizing agent). The reducing agent loses electrons (oxidation) and the oxidizing agent gains electrons (reduction). This electron transfer results in the generation of electrical energy or a chemical change in the substances involved in the reaction.

The term used to describe a new substance formed from a chemical reaction would be "product."

A type of bond in which one atom gains electrons and one atom loses electrons is an ionic bond.
Ions are the units that make up substances formed by ionic bonding. One atom loses one or more electrons to become a positively charged ion (cation), while another atom gains those electrons to become a negatively charged ion (anion). These oppositely charged ions then attract each other to form an ionic bond.
