<span>Oxidation is the loss of electrons and corresponds to an increase in oxidation state. The reduction is the gain of electrons and corresponds to a decrease in oxidation state. Balancing redox reactions can be more complicated than balancing other types of reactions because both the mass and charge must be balanced. Redox reactions occurring in aqueous solutions can be balanced by using a special procedure called the half-reaction method of balancing. In this procedure, the overall equation is broken down into two half-reactions: one for oxidation and the other for reduction. The half-reactions are balanced individually and then added together so that the number of electrons generated in the oxidation half-reaction is the same as the number of electrons consumed in the reduction half-reaction.</span>

Processes in which matter changes between liquid and gaseous states are vaporization, evaporation, and condensation."</span>
Answer:
C. A series circuit has only one loop and a parallel circuit has two or more loops for the current to flow through
Explanation:
A circuit that are made of one loop is called series circuit. On the other hand, the parallel circuit has at least two loops. The circuit type has nothing to do with open or closed circuit.
If any part of the series circuit got cut, the current will stop flowing since there is only one loop. A parallel circuit has more loop so the circuit might still work even if a part of the circuit got cut.
