RedOx Reactions

Key points of RedOX(oxidation) reactions:
1. They are all single replacement.
2. The metals always switch places.
3. The reactions are based off of the reactivity series.
4. The driving force is the transfer of electrons.
5. The element that loses electrons is oxidized and also known as the reducing agent.
6. The element that gains electrons is reduced and also known as the oxidizing agent.

Here are some of my notes from class on oxidation:
