Choose all of the statements from below which are true about oxidation and reduction. Ooxidation and reduction are opposite processes with respect to bookkeeping electrons. O Oxidation is what happens when an element in a substance increases its oxidation number. Electrons appear on the right side of an oxidation half reaction. An oxidant is an oxidizing agent, which becomes reduced during the course of a redox reaction. O Reduction is what happens when an element in a substance decreases its oxidation number. Electrons appear on the left side of a reduction half reaction. A reductant is an reducing agent, which becomes oxidized during the course of a redox reaction. K
