검증된 단계별 안내1
Understand the definitions of key terms in redox reactions: Oxidation and Reduction.
Recall that oxidation is the process where a substance loses electrons. This often involves an increase in oxidation state.
Recognize that gaining oxygen is commonly associated with oxidation because oxygen is highly electronegative and tends to pull electrons away from other elements.
Note that reduction is the opposite process, where a substance gains electrons and often loses oxygen.
Conclude that the process where a substance loses electrons and gains oxygen is called \( \textbf{oxidation} \).
