Description: Oxidation involves loss of electrons; reduction involves gain. Oxidizing agents promote oxidation; reducing agents facilitate reduction. Redox reactions include combination, decomposition, displacement, and combustion.
Description: Balancing redox reactions adjusts coefficients to ensure conservation of mass and charge, typically using oxidation numbers or half-reactions to achieve equilibrium.
Description: The oxidation number method assigns oxidation states to atoms in compounds, facilitating balancing of redox reactions by ensuring electron transfer conserves overall charge.
Description: The ion-electron method, or half-reaction method, balances redox reactions by breaking them into oxidation and reduction half-reactions, adjusting coefficients to achieve electron transfer equilibrium.
Description: Redox reactions involve electron transfer. Electrode potential measures a substance's tendency to gain or lose electrons in electrochemical reactions.
