Oxidation and Reduction (Differences!) Tutorial Creator of Tutorial: rvc
Simple 5 Points in tabular form and its done :) Easy to remember :) \(\begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline \color{black}{\bf \huge Oxidation}&\color{black}{\bf \huge Reduction}\\ \hline \color{Red}{\rm Addition~of~ O_2}&\color{blue}{\rm Addition~ of~ H_2}\\ \hline \color{Red}{\rm Removal~ of~ H_2}&\color{blue}{\rm Removal~ of~ O_2}\\ \hline \color{Red}{\rm Loss~ of~ electron}&\color{blue}{\rm Gain~ of~ electron}\\ \hline \color{Red}{\rm Oxidation~State~Increases\\~ Zn~ \rightarrow~ Zn^{2+}~+~2e^{-}}&\color{blue}{\rm Oxidation~State~Decreases\\~ Cu^{+2}~+~2e^{-}~ \rightarrow~ Cu}\\ \hline \color{Red}{\rm Reducing~Agents~ get~ Oxidised}&\color{blue}{\rm Oxidizing~ Agents~ get~ Reduced }\\ \hline \end{array}\)
