QUESTION 2
What is meant by oxidation and reduction?
Oxidation and reduction could be defined from 4 different angles . Fill in the table below
Oxidation reaction Reduction Reaction
a) Oxygen gain or
oxygen loss
b) Hydrogen gain or
hydrogen loss
c) electron transfer
d) changes in oxidation
number
QUESTION 3. Choose the best answer for statements below
A) Definition of REDOX involving oxygen gain or oxygen loss
2Mg + CO2 2MgO + C
i) Magnesium undergoes oxidation/reduction reaction because
magnesium has gain/lost oxygen
ii) Carbon undergoes oxidation/reduction reaction because carbon
has gain/lost oxygen
3. 3
B) Definition of REDOX involving hydrogen gain or hydrogen loss
H2S + F2 S + 2HF
i) Sulphur undergoes oxidation/reduction reaction because
Sulphur has gain/lost hydrogen
ii) Fluorine undergoes oxidation/reduction reaction because fluorine
has gain/lost hydrogen
