    • Oxidation is the loss of electrons.
    • Reduction is the gain of electrons.
    • Oxidation and Reduction reactions are often called Redox Reactions.
    • Oxidizing agents gain electrons and are reduced.
    • Reducing agents lose electrons and are oxidized.

    Oxidation Numbers

    • Oxidation number is the assigned charge of an atom in a molecule or ion, assuming complete electron transfer.
    • Rules for assigning oxidation numbers include:     * free elements have an oxidation number of zero     * The oxidation number of monatomic ions is equal to the charge     * The oxidation number of oxygen is usually -2, but it can be -1 in peroxides     * The oxidation number of hydrogen is +1 except when bonded to metals in binary compounds, in which case the oxidation number is -1     * The sum of the oxidation numbers of all the atoms in a molecule or ion is equal to the charge on the molecule or ion

    Solution Stoichiometry

    • Molarity (M) is the moles of solute per liter of solution (M=mol/L).
    • Solutions of known molarity can be prepared by weighing out a precise amount of solute and dissolving it in a specific volume of solvent.

    Dilution of Solutions

    • Dilution is the process of lowering the concentration of a solution by adding more solvent.
    • The number of moles of solute remains the same during dilution. Calculations for dilution include M₁V₁=M₂V₂

    Acid-Base Titration

    • Titration is used to determine the concentration of an unknown solution by reacting it with a solution of known concentration.
    • The equivalence point is the point at which the reaction is complete and the indicator changes color.
    • Calculations involve using molarity, volume, and mole ratios of acids and bases.
