Question 13 (4 points)
Classify each half reaction below as oxidation or reduction.
When electrons are lost, they are written as a product in a half reaction.
When electrons are gained, they are written as a reactant in a half reaction.
When electrons are lost, the oxidation number increases.
When electrons are gained, the oxidation number decreases.
