REDOX Reactions
Oxidation – Reduction

Oxidation – Reduction Reaction
These reactions involve a transfer of electrons
Half reactions MUST occur simultaneously
Oxidation – loss of electronsOxidizing agent – a substance that
has the potential to cause another substance to be oxidized

Reduction – involves the gain of electronsReducing agent – a substance that
has the potential to cause another substance to be reduced (gain electrons)
Oxidation – Reduction Reaction

The oxidation number of a pure element is 0The oxidation number of a monatomic ion
equals the charge on the ionThe more electronegative element in a
binary compound is assigned the number equal to the charge it would have it were an ion
The oxidation number of fluorine in a compound is always -1
Oxygen has an oxidation number of -2 unless it is combined with Fluorine, in which it is +1 or +2, or it is in a peroxide, in which it is -1

Hydrogen’s oxidation state in most of its compound is +1, unless it is combined with a metal, in which case it is -1
In compounds, Group 1 and Group 2 elements and aluminum have oxidation numbers of +1, +2, and +3 respectively
The sum of the oxidation numbers of all atoms in a neutral compound in 0
The sum of the oxidation numbers of all atoms in a polyatomic ion equals the charge of the ion

OxidationOxidation is the process in which atoms
or ions of an element experience an increase in oxidation states
2 Na (s) + Cl2 (g) 2 NaCl(s)Sodium undergoes an oxidation process
because the sodium atoms loses an electron and become a sodium ion – sodium is an oxidized to a sodium ions

A species whose oxidation number increases is oxidized
0 +1

ReductionReduction is the process in which the
oxidation state of an element decreases 2 Na (s) + Cl2 (g) 2 NaCl(s)
Each chlorine atom accepts an electrons and becomes a chloride ion
Electrons are on the left side of the arrow
Cl2 + 2e- 2Cl-
A species that undergoes a decrease in oxidation state is reduced
