Oxidation is gain of oxygen.

2 H_{2} + O_{2} \to 2 H_{2} O

The hydrogen is oxidized and the oxygen is reduced.

N_{2} + O_{2} \to 2 NO

This formation of nitric oxide oxidizes the nitrogen and reduces the oxygen.

Reduction is the loss of oxygen from a substance. For example, copper oxide can be reduced to form copper if it is reacted with hydrogen:

C u O + H_{2} \to C u + H_{2} O

Zinc oxide can be reduced to zinc metal if heated with carbon.

Z n O + C \to Z n + CO
