    Redox reactions involve the transfer of electrons between reactants. Oxidation is the loss of electrons and increases oxidation number, while reduction is the gain of electrons and decreases oxidation number. Dilute acids can undergo redox reactions with some metals, where the acid is oxidized and the metal is reduced, producing salts and hydrogen gas.

    Cornell Note-Taking

    Topic or Essential Question: redox

    Questions and Ideas Notes:

    oxidation number is always 0 for elements in their natural


    is the activation state
    energy higher or
    lower for redox each atom in a compound has an oxidation number, these
    reactions in must add up to equal the overall charge of the atom
    comparison to
    other reactions?

    does a higher
    oxidation number
    make it more likely
    to redox?

    roman numeral next to an element represents the


    oxidation number

    oxidation is the gain of oxygen and the loss of electrons.


    oxidation number increases

    reduction is the loss of oxygen and the gain of electrons.


    oxidation number decreases

    dilute acids also undergo redox reactions with some


    metals to produce salts and hydrogen gas

    Summary: if something is oxidised something must be reduced, dilute acids can


    undergo redox with a metal
