REDOX REACTIONS

 A reaction during which electron transfer takes place

Electron Transfer
 During ionic bonding between a metal & non-metal, electron
transfer occurs redox reaction
 A redox reaction consists of 2 half-reactions that occur
simultaneously and combine to produce the net reaction

Oxidation
 A loss of electrons

Reduction
 A gain of electrons

Oxidising Agent
 A substance that is reduced / gains electrons
 Causes the oxidation of the other substance

Reducing Agent
 A substance that is oxidized / loses electrons
 Causes the reduction of the other substance

Types of Reactions
 During ionic bonding, the metal ion acts as the reducing agent (is
oxidized) & the non-metal acts as the oxidising agent (is reduced)
 In the 'magnesium burns in oxygen' reacting, Mg is oxidized
reducing agent & O2 is reduced oxidising agent
