Oxidation-reduction reactions (or redox) reactions, are a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between two species. An oxidation-reduction reaction is any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a molecule, atom, or ion changes by gaining or losing an e-. They occur every day and are vital to some of the basic functions of life. Some examples include photosynthesis, respiration, combustion, and corrosion or rusting. To understand these types of reactions, you must first understand oxidation numbers or states.
