REDOX REACTION
REDUCTION OXIDATION 
 
By the end of the topic, students should be able to:
Know what is meant by a redox reaction.Define oxidation and reduction in terms of oxygen gain/loss and use itto show where oxidation and reduction take place in a reaction.Define oxidation and reduction in terms of hydrogen loss/gain and useit to show where oxidation and reduction take place in a reaction.Define oxidation and reduction as electron loss/gain and use it to showwhere oxidation and reduction take place in a reaction.Find the oxidation state of an element in a compound.Find the formula of a compound from its name containing an oxidationnumber.Define oxidation and reduction in terms of changes in oxidation stateand use it to show where oxidation and reduction take place in areaction.Describe the colour change when potassium iodide is used to test foran oxidizing agent.Describe the colour change when potassium manganate (VII) andpotassium dichromate (VI) are used to test for a reducing agent.State some common oxidizing and reducing agents.
Please tick in the box if you can do the above.

OXIDATION AND REDUCTION
In chemical reactions, oxidation and reduction is an important conceptand it has applications in many topics.
There are several ways of describing oxidation and reduction. Theycan be described in terms of:1) loss and gain of oxygen2) loss and gain of hydrogen3) loss and gain of electrons4) change of oxidation state
1) LOSS AND GAIN OF OXYGEN
Gain of oxygen
in a reaction is __________________.
Loss of oxygen
in a reaction is __________________.
Example 1:Oxidising and reducing agent
What is an oxidizing agent?
A substance that causes another substance to be _______________.An oxidizing agent is _____________ when it oxidizes anothersubstance.
What is a reducing agent?
A substance that causes another substance to be _______________.A reducing agent is _______________ when it reduces anothersubstance.
From example 1 above, state the oxidizing agent and the reducingagent.

Please proceed to do exercise from:CHEMISTRY INSIGHTS, Pg. 325, Questions, Quest. 1-2
2) LOSS AND GAIN OF HYDROGEN
Loss of hydrogen
in a reaction is ______________________.
Gainof hydrogen
in a reaction is _______________________.
Example 2:
From example 2 above, state the oxidizing agent and the reducingagent.
Oxidising agent:Reducing agent:
Please proceed to do exercise from:CHEMISTRY INSIGHTS, Pg. 325, Questions, Quest. 3
3) LOSS AND GAIN OF ELECTRONS
Loss of electrons
in a reaction is
_________________.
Gain of electrons
in a reaction is _________________.
Example 3:
From example 3 above, state the oxidizing agent and the reducingagent.
