  1. Oxidation is the gain of electrons.
  2. Reduction is the loss of electrons.
  3. Oxidizing agents are reduced.
  4. Reducing agents are oxidized.

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In redox reactions, which of the following statements is true?
  • Step 1: Understand what a redox reaction is. A redox reaction involves the transfer of electrons between two substances.
  • Step 2: Identify the two key roles in a redox reaction: the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent.
  • Step 3: Know that the oxidizing agent is the substance that gains electrons during the reaction.
  • Step 4: Recognize that when the oxidizing agent gains electrons, it is reduced (its oxidation state decreases).
  • Step 5: Conclude that the statement 'Oxidizing agents are reduced as they gain electrons during redox reactions' is true.
