Differences between reduction and oxidation
ZIMSEC O Level Combined Science Notes: Differences between reduction and oxidation
- There are differences between oxidation and reduction
- The table below shows the differences between oxidation and reduction:
- Often reduction and oxidation occur in conjunction
- That is at the same time and during the same reaction
- For example:
- \text{ammonia+oxygen}\rightarrow\text{water+nitrogen dioxide}
- Nitrogen gains oxygen and losses hydrogen […]
Carbon can be used to reduce copper oxide
