Oxidation-Reduction Oxidation is the loss of electrons. Reduction is the gain of electrons. The reactions occur together. One does not occur without the other. The terms are used relative to the change in the oxidation state or oxidation number of the reactant(s).

QUESTION
11
ANSWER 2 – 2 O 2 B)NO Oxygen almost always has an oxidation state of 2 when part of a compound. The exception is when it is part of a peroxide. For example, hydrogen peroxide H. Then it has an oxidation state of –1.

QUESTION
20
ANSWER C) 2 If an element is a reactant, this usually a redox reaction, since an element usually becomes part of a compound during a chemical reaction. Cu + 2AgNO 3 2Ag + Cu(NO 3 ) 2 N 2 + 3H 2 2NH 3

QUESTION
23
ANSWER B)the oxidizing agent. Metals lose electrons, so they are oxidized, making the other reactant an oxidizing agent.
24
Balancing Redox Equations in acidic solutions 1) Determine the oxidation numbers of atoms in both reactants and products. 2) Identify and select out those which change oxidation number (“redox” atoms) into separate “half reactions”. 3) Balance the “redox” atoms and charges (electron gain and loss must equal!). 4) In acidic reactions balance oxygen with water then hydrogen from water with acid proton(s).
