उत्तर
In a reaction, nickel oxide is changing to nickel. That is, oxygen is being removed from nickel oxide. Removal of oxygen from a substance is called reduction, so nickel oxide undergoes reduction.
In a reaction, hydrogen is changing to H2O. That is, oxygen is being added to hydrogen. Addition of oxygen to a substance is called oxidation, so hydrogen undergoes oxidation.
The reactions in which oxidation and reduction take place simultaneously are called Redox reactions.
