Redox reactions are all chemical reactions where the oxidation state of atoms is changed. The two concepts of the term "redox" involved with electron transfer are oxidation and reduction. Oxidation is the loss of electrons or an increase in oxidation state by a molecule, atom or ion and reduction is the gain of electrons or a decrease in oxidation state by a molecule, atom or ion.
