reduction
This reaction can be called "deoxidation" or "reduction".
it forms iron oxide, and it can/should form rust
This type of reaction is called a 'reduction'. (The opposite to 'oxidation')
In chemistry, reduction is considered the gaining of electrons. Oxidation is the lose of electrons. They go together in reactions called redox (reduction/oxidation). You cannot have a reduction without also having an oxidation.
reduction
This is a reduction reaction.
a redox reaction
This reaction can be called "deoxidation" or "reduction".
it forms iron oxide, and it can/should form rust
Because it gains electrons ,therefore its valency decreases : it becomes Negative
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.
ok im not shore but i think its called reduction
The reaction type is called oxidation-reduction, used in electroplating.
It is an oxidation-reduction reaction called rusting.
