OXIDATION-REDUCTION REACTION
Introduction:
Acid is any compound that increases the amount of hydrogen ion (H+) in an
aqueous solution. A base is a compound that increases the amount of hydroxide ion
(OH−) in an aqueous solution. The reaction of an acid and a base is called
a neutralization reaction. In this reaction salt is formed as one of the products.
Basic oxides are oxides of metals that combine with water to form a bases
Acidic oxides are oxides of non-metal that combine with water to form acids

Introduction:
The term oxidation was originally applied to reactions in which substances combined
with oxygen, while reduction was used to define the removal of oxygen from an oxygen-
containing compound. However, definitions based on oxygen are too restrictive. At present, the
terms oxidation and reduction are defined in a broader manner, even without Oxygen.
ACTIVITY 1 List down some ideas on oxidation-reduction
reaction.
Example:
Mg+2 O-2 SO2-2
Example:
5. The sum of all oxidation numbers in a radical is equal to the charge of the radical.
Example:
N+5O3-2 NO3-1
THE OXIDATION-NUMBER METHOD FOR BALANCING REDOX
Redox is the term used to label reactions in which the acceptance of an electron
(reduction) by a reactant is matched with the donation of an electron (oxidation) by
another.
1. Determine the oxidation number of the atoms in the equation to identify atoms
undergoing oxidation or reduction.
2e lost x 1 = 2 e lost/mol
KMn O4 + K2S O3 + H2O
+7 +4
Mn+4O2 + K2S+6 O4 + KOH
3e gained x 1 = 2 e gained/mol
2. Make the total decrease and the total increase in the oxidation number equal.
2e lost x 1 = 2 e lost/mol x 3 = 6
KMn O4 + K2S O3 + H2O
+7 +4
Mn+4O2 + K2S+6 O4 + KOH
3e gained x 1 = 3 e gained/mol x 2 = 6

Neutralization occurs when an acid or acidic oxide reacts with a base or a basic
oxide. Basic oxides are oxides of metals that combine with water to form a bases. Acidic
oxides are oxides of non-metal that combine with water to form acids.
Oxidation was originally applied to reactions in which substances combined with oxygen,
while reduction was used to define the removal of oxygen from an oxygen-containing
