A) an oxidation reaction
that's why they are called redox

The answer is a)
Reduction means the addition of electrons in a reaction, and oxidation means the removal of electrons.
In real life, one cannot exist without the other. That is, the electrons removed by the oxidation are taken up by the reduction half of the reaction.

a) an oxidation reaction
In a reduction reaction, some ion or compound gains an electron. In an oxidation reaction, some ion or compound loses an electron. Obviously, if something loses an electron, it has to go somewhere, so it goes to another ion or compound. Therefore, reduction and oxidation reactions always go hand in hand.

The answer is a) Oxidation reaction. RedOx term refer to RED - reduction and OX stands for Oxidaton. One will not exist without the other.

C. Assuming an Oxidation-help reaction... If the substance is present technique help, then it somewhat is being plagued by potential of a reducing agent...meaning that it somewhat is, in turn, oxidizing that reducing agent...and it somewhat is subsequently the oxidizing agent.
