Introduction

The transfer of electrons from one chemical substance to another is known as an oxidation-reduction or redox or electron transfer reaction. The reactant that loses electrons (is oxidized) causes a reduction and is called a reducing agent. The reactant that gains electrons (is reduced) causes an oxidation and is called an oxidizing agent.
