Chemistry-Balancing Redox Reactions
NEET Chemistry Balancing Redox Reactions Match the Following Question
Type: Match the Following-match the column-Easy-Class 11
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Oxidation (i) Gain of electrons (b) Reduction (ii) Loss of electrons (c) Oxidising agent (iii) Substance that gets reduced (d) Reducing agent (iv) Substance that gets oxidised
Choose the correct matching:
A
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
B
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
C
a-ii, b-iii, c-i, d-iv
D
a-i, b-iii, c-ii, d-iv
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Oxidation involves the loss of electrons (a-ii) and reduction involves the gain of electrons (b-i). The oxidising agent is the substance that gets reduced (c-iii), while the reducing agent is the one that gets oxidised (d-iv). This aligns with the definitions of oxidation and reduction in redox reactions.
