Comprehension Type:
Passage – I Oxidation and reduction always occur simultaneously. These
reactions which involve simultaneous oxidation and reduction are called redox
reactions. Therefore every redox reaction is made up of two half reactions. One
half reaction represents oxidation and other half reaction represents oxidation
and other half reaction represents the reduction. Oxidation and reduction of an
atom, molecule or ion can also defined in terms of electrons. The substance that
gains electrons, is reduced to a lower oxidation state and acts as an oxidizing
agent. Similarly, the substance which loses electrons is oxidized to higher
oxidation state, and is called a reducing agent.
