1 Redox reactions may involve the transfer of electrons between chemical species. 2  The reaction that occurs when In which I 2 is reduced to I-and S 2 O 3 2- (thiosulfate anion) is oxidized to S 4 O 6 2- provides an example of a redox reaction :
OXIDATION AND REDUCTION HALF REACTIONS. Redox reactions involve both an oxidation half reaction and a reduction half reaction. In electron transfer reactions the electrons come from one compound (the donor) and are received by another (the acceptor). The electrons are donated by the oxidation half reaction and accepted by the reduction half reaction.
