Oxidation in terms of oxidation number?
Oxidation number increases when the atom is oxidised, and decreases when it is reduced
Can the oxidation number of an element change?
Yes, it can. When the element loses electron, the oxidation number increases and when it gains electron, the oxidation number decreases.
What happens to atoms in an oxidation-reduction reaction?
The oxidation state of one atom increases while another decreases.
An atoms relative ability to attract electrons shared in a chemical bond is known as its?
Electronegativity. The strongest element is F.
When a neutral atom undergoes oxidation the atoms oxidation state?
increases as it loses electrons

What happens to atoms in an oxidation-reduction reaction?
The oxidation state of one atom increases while another decreases.
What is a re-dox reaction?
A reaction in which electrons have been transferred from one atom to another .
What happens to atoms in a oxidation reduction reaction?
The oxidation state of one atom increases while another decreases.
What happens to atoms in an oxidation - reduction reaction?
The oxidation state of one atom increases while another decreases.
Why do you need to know the oxidation number of the elements?
because if you know the oxidation numbers of all the reactants and products in a given reaction, you can determine which, if any, of the reactants were oxidized and which were reduced. oxidized is when the oxidation number increases, reduced is when the oxidation number decreases.
What is oxidation according to electronic concept?
loss of electron in electronegativity ion
An atoms relative ability to attract electrons shared in a chemical bond is known as its?
Electronegativity. The strongest element is F.
Why is NO3 to NO a reduction?
because the oxidation state of N decreases
When a neutral atom undergoes oxidation the atoms oxidation state?
increases as it loses electrons
