Oxidation-reduction reactions (or redox) reactions, are a type of reaction in aqueous solutions that involves a transfer of electrons between two species. An oxidation-reduction reaction is any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a molecule, atom, or ion changes by gaining or losing an e-. They occur every day and are vital to some of the basic functions of life. Some examples include photosynthesis (within plants), respiration (within animals), combustion, and corrosion or rusting
