DEVELOPMENT OF REACTION redox

OXIDATION 
1. The reaction of a substance with oxygen 
2. The reaction is accompanied by the release of electrons 
DEVELOPMENT OF REACTION redox
3. Experienced an increase in oxidation (as reductant) 

REDUCTION 
1. Or release of oxygen reduction reaction 
2. The reaction is accompanied by electron capture 
DEVELOPMENT OF REACTION redox
3. Oxidation decreased (as oxidant) 

Note: 
Oxidants: 
- A substance that is reduced 
- More easily capture electrons 

DEVELOPMENT OF REACTION redox
Reductant: 
- A substance that is oxidized 
- Easier to remove electrons.
