Question

Oxidation and reduction takes place side by side as they are reversible reaction.
If true enter 1, else enter 0.

• A. 1

Answer 1

The correct option is A 1
Oxidation and reduction takes place side by side and they are reversible reaction.
One species is oxidized and the other species is reduced. The electrons released by one species are accepted by other species.
For example in the reaction: $C{u}^{2+}+Zn\rightleftharpoons Cu+Z{n}^{2+}$, Zn is oxidized to $Z{n}^{2+}$ and $C{u}^{2+}$ is reduced to Cu.
