Oxidation and Reduction

Notes of oxidation and reduction. anyone please.?!?

In terms of Classical idea:

Oxidation: Addition of oxygen or any other electronegative element to a substance .Conversely , Removal of Hydrogen or any other electropositive element from a substance.

Mg (s) + S (s) MgS (s)

Similarly, Reduction is just opposite process of oxidation.

2FeCl₃(aq) + H₂(g)2FeCl₂(aq) + 2HCl (aq)

In terms of Electron transfer reaction:
Oxidation: Loss of electron
Reduction: Gain of electron
Oxidant: Acceptor of electron
...

Oxidation & Reduction in terms of O.N.

↪ In terms of O.N., oxidation is a chemical process which involve increase in O.N. .Reduction is a chemical process which involves decrease in O.N. .⁕ Oxidizing and Reducing Agent in terms O.N.↪ ...

Redox Reaction

↪ In any chemical reaction oxidation and reduction always occur together. ↪ No oxidation is possible without reduction and vice versa. ↪ If electrons are lost by some chemical species in a reaction...

Oxidation Number

↪ The residual charge to have appeared on the atom after the electron transfer process. OR↪ Oxidation number of an atom may be define...

Ion-Electron Method

↪ The method is based on the fact that electrons lost during oxidation half of any redox reaction are equal to the electrons gained during reduction half reaction but this method is limited to the ...

Explain all the Faraday's law of electrolysis. Write significance of the law of electrolysis.

Define electrolysis. Write factors affecting electrolysis.

Introduction
