Why does a reduction reaction always accompany
an oxidation reaction?
Because the metals have lost electrons to oxygen, they have been oxidized; oxidation is therefore the loss of electrons. Conversely, because the oxygen atoms have gained electrons, they have been reduced, so reduction is the gain of electrons. ... Any oxidation must ALWAYS be accompanied by a reduction and vice versa.
