We find examples of oxidation-reduction or redox reactions almost every time we analyze the reactions used as sources of either heat or work. When natural gas burns, for example, an oxidation-reduction reaction occurs that releases more than 800 kJ/mol of energy.
To help you to remember that oxidation means losing electrons and reduction means gaining electrons, remember O I L R I G (Oxidation Is Loss, Reduction Is Gain-of electrons). Oxidation and reduction always occur together. They are called redox reactions (pronounced reed-ox for reduction / oxidation).
