Redox Equilibrium

Oxidation and Reduction in Terms of Hydrogen Transfer Oxidation is the process of losing hydrogen. Reduction is the process of gaining hydrogen. For example, ethanol can be oxidised to ethanal: Ammonia loses hydrogen. Ammonia is oxidised to become nitrogen. This is an oxidation process. Bromine gains hydrogen. Bromine is reduced to become hydrogen bromide. This is a reduction process. … Read more

Oxidation and Reduction in Terms of Oxygen Transfer Oxidation is the process of gaining oxygen. Reduction is the process of losing oxygen. For example, in the extraction of iron from its ore: Iron(III) oxide loses oxygen. Iron(III) oxide is reduced to iron. This is a reduction process. Carbon monoxide gains oxygen. Carbon monoxide is oxidised … Read more

A redox reaction is a chemical reaction that involves reduction and oxidation that occurs simultaneously. In a redox reaction, both reduction and oxidation are going on side-by-side. Oxidation and reduction can be defined in terms of loss or gain of oxygen loss or gain of hydrogen transfer of electrons change in oxidation number The redox … Read more

Understanding Oxidation and Reduction Oxidation and reduction can be understood from the aspect of: Losing or gaining oxygen  Losing or gaining hydrogen Transferring of electron Changing of oxidation number
