Defining Oxidation and Reduction
Students will define oxidation and reduction in terms of electron transfer and oxidation states.
Key Questions
- Differentiate between oxidation and reduction using both electron transfer and oxidation state definitions.
- Identify the oxidizing agent and reducing agent in a given redox reaction.
- Explain why oxidation and reduction must always occur simultaneously.
