Redox Reacticns
7.|OxIDAtiON AN) REDVCTION, 7. 2 oxpATION STATCs
Redox reaction - oxIdation and reduction at the same tme
Oxidation Reduction!
- Gan ot o - Loss of
xygen
-Loss of ejetrons Oxygen
Gon of electrons
Loss ot hydrogen
lnceae in oxidaton state
Gain of hydrogen
Derease n oxidaton state
Oxid1s1ng ogent- electron occepter
Reduc1ng agent-electron donor
0xidation state- number of electrons to lose or qoain to become
neutral assigned to each element n asubstance
electrically
Oxdation state rulesi
Oxidation state of atoms in pure elements are 0
- ln an
uncharged campound, sum of oxydation stotes is O
for ions of one element, oxidation stote is the same as the charqe
for ions ot more than one element, oxidutiom state of all elements sums

In compounds and ions, somê elements oxidaton states rarely change
