Answer: C. Electrons are lost.
Explanation:
- The oxidation reduction reaction is between oxidizing agent and reducing agent.
- The oxidizing agent gains electrons and reduction process occurs to it, while the reducing agent losses electrons and oxidation process occurs to it.
- oxidizing agent + ne → product <em>"reduction process, gain electrons"</em>
- reducing agent → product + ne<em> "oxidation process, loss electrons"</em>
- Thus, The right answer is: in the oxidation process, electrons are lost.
