What happens during Redox?

Electrons are transferred from one reactant to another reactant. Occurs with a metal and non-metal

2
New cards

Oxidation number for Lone element (diatomics)

ox = 0

3
New cards

Oxidation number for Ionic compounds

is = match ionic charge

4
New cards

What is a redox reaction?

The reactant oxidation numbers are different than the oxidation numbers of the product side.

5
New cards

What occurs in a redox reaction?

one reactant is oxidized, the other is reduced

6
New cards

OIL RIG

Oxidation is the loss of electrons. Reduction is the gain of electrons. These always occur together.

Types of Redox reactions

Combination (can be)

Decomposition (can be)

Single replacement (usually)

Combustion (always redox)
