2. Redox reaction are chemical
reaction in which reactants
experience a change in oxidation
number.
Oxidation is the gain of oxygen.
Reduction is the loss of oxygen
3.
4. No Definition Oxidation Reduction
1 Oxygen Transfer Gain O (+) Lose O (-)
2 Hydrogen Transfer Lose H (-) Gain H (+)
3 Electron Transfer Lose E (-) Gain E (+)
4 Change in Oxidation state Increase (+) Decrease (-)
number
5. Find the oxidation states of
each element in (NH4)2SO4
The ammonium ion NH4+ has an overall charge of +1. The nitrogen
atom (-3),
Hydrogen atom (+1). The sulfate ion (SO4 2-) has an overall charge of -
2. (-2) for oxygen
Atom and (+6) for sulfur atom.
7. Reducing agents can react
with Reducing agents.
Reducing agents cannot
react with Oxidizing agents.
Oxidizing agents cannot
react with Reducing agents.
8. Chemicals added: Acidified Potassium
Dichromate(VI) and Bromine/Iodine
solution.
Observation: Acidified Potassium
Dichromate(VI) turns from orange to
green. Iodine solution turns from brown
to colorless. OR Bromine solution turns
from Reddish brown to colorless.
(Solution decolourised)
9. Chemical added: Potassium iodide
solution and Carbon.
Observation: Colourless Potassium iodide
solution turns Brown. Also, Black C(s)
dissolves. CO2(g) evolved forms white
precipitate in limewater.

agents and oxidizing
agents and what has
been oxidized or
reduced?
