Question

In general, what happens during an oxidation-reduction reaction between two molecules? An atom in the reduced molecule donates an electron as an atom in the oxidized molecule attracts the electron. An oxygen atom in the oxidized molecule attracts an electron and a hydrogen atom in the reduced molecule donates an electron. An atom in the reduced molecule attracts an electron that an atom in the oxidized molecule donates A hydrogen atom in the reduced molecule attracts an electron and a carbon atom in the Oxidized molecule donates an electron

Explanation / Answer

Option A is the correct answer.

In an oxidation-reduction reaction between two molecules, the reduced molecule will undergo oxidation by donating one or more of its electrons and the oxidised molecule will undergo reduction by accepting those electrons. Hence, option 1 is the correct answer. Oxidation and Reduction are not limited to any specific atom(s).
