Oxidation:
Example:
two electrons removed from iron: Fe --> Fe2+ + 2e-
two electrons removed from iodide: 2I- --> I2 + 2e-

The electrons
Electrons from an atom can be removed for ex. in a chemical reaction.
When an element reacts with another element, they form a compound. How a compound is formed has to do with the number of valence electrons. The valence electrons are the electrons which are held in the outer most energy level.
The Electrons farthest from the nucleus of the atom
A standard chemical reaction always and only involves a change in the electron configuration of the atom (either the number of electrons or their energy configuration).If the nucleus is affected (either the number of protons or electrons), then it is designated as a nuclear reaction, and this is quite different.
The valence electrons are the part that takes place in a chemical reaction.
