Electron Transfer Reactions
• oxidation-reduction or redox reactions are
Electron transfer reactions.
• Redox reactions can result in the
generation of an electric current.
• Therefore, this field of chemistry is
often called
ELECTROCHEMISTRY.

or negative number assigned to
an atom to indicate its degree of
oxidation or reduction.

OXIDATION NUMBERS
The electric charge an element
APPEARS to have when electrons
are counted by some arbitrary rules:
1. An element has ox. no. = 0.
Zn
O2
I2
S8
2. In simple ions, ox. no. = charge on ion.
-1 for Cl+2 for Mg2+
17
OXIDATION NUMBERS
3. In a compound: O has ox. no. = -2
(except in peroxides: in H2O2, O = -1)
4. In a Molecule: Ox. no. of H = +1
(except when H is associated with a
metal as in NaH where it is -1)
5. Algebraic sum of oxidation numbers
= 0 for a compound
= overall charge for an ion

Review of Terminology
for Redox Reactions
• OXIDATION—loss of electron(s) by a
species; increase in oxidation number.
• REDUCTION—gain of electron(s);
decrease in oxidation number.
• OXIDIZING AGENT—electron acceptor;
species is reduced.
• REDUCING AGENT—electron donor;
species is oxidized.
