Answer» Oxidation is loss of electronsReduction is gain of electrons (I) O + 2e- ==> O2- In this oxygen is gaining electrons so its a reduction reaction (2) K - e- ==> K+ In this potassium is losing electrons so its a oxidation reaction. (3) Fe3+ + e- ==> Fe2+ In this iron is gaining electrons so its a reduction reaction |
