- OXIDATION
- Oxidation Is Loss of electrons or the gain of oxygen
- REDUCTION
- Example of redox
- Copper oxide & hydrogen
- CuO + H2 Cu + H2O
- There is OXIDATION, as hydrogen gains oxygen
- There is REDUCTION, as copper looses oxygen
- So copper is reduced and hydrogen is oxidised
- CuO + H2 Cu + H2O
- Copper oxide & hydrogen
