Chemistry 1210: Introduction to General Chemistry Dr. Gina M. Florio 11 October 2012 Jespersen, Brady and Hyslop Chapter 6 Oxidation-Reduction Reactions Reactions that involve the transfer of electrons are called oxidation-reduction or redox reactions. Oxidation is the loss of electrons by a reactant. Reduction is the gain of electrons by a reactant LEO the lion goes GER! LEO: Losing Electrons during Oxidation GER: Gaining Electrons during Reduction Redox Reactions Redox Reactions In a balanced redox reaction, the total number of electrons lost by one substance is the same as the total number of electrons gained by the other. Oxidizing agent ? the substance that accepts the electrons. Reducing agent ? the substance that gives up the electrons.

Types of chemical reactions A chemical reaction is a process that is usually characterized by a chemical change in which the starting materials (reactants) are different from the products. Chemical reactions tend to involve the motion of electrons, leading to the formation and breaking of chemical bonds. There are several different types of chemical reactions and more than one way of classifying them. Here are some common reaction types: Synthesis Reaction (Direct Combination) In a synthesis reaction two or more chemical species combine to form a more complex product. O + H2 ? H2O C + O2 CO2 Chemical Decomposition (Analysis Reaction) In a decomposition reaction a compound is broken into smaller chemical species. H2O ? H2 + O CO2 C + O2
