उत्तर

Oxidation
Reduction
The chemical reaction in which reactants rain oxygen atoms to form corresponding oxides are known as oxidation reactions.
The chemical reactions in which reactant gain hydrogen are called reduction reactions.
The chemical reactions in which reactants lose hydrogen atoms to form products are called oxidation reductions.
The reactions in which reactants lose oxygen atoms to form products are called as reduction reactions.
