Question
Write the oxidation and reduction reactions separately from the following redox reaction.
$2\text{Fe}+2\text{H}_2\text{O}+\text{O}_2\xrightarrow{ \ \ \ \\ \ \ }2\text{Fe(OH)}_2$

Answer

$\text{Fe}\xrightarrow{ \ \ \ \ \ \ }\text{Fe}^{2+}+2\text{e}^-\text{(Oxidation)}$
$\frac{1}{2}\text{O}_2+\text{H}_2\text{O}+2\text{e}^-\xrightarrow{ \ \ \ \ \ }2\text{OH}^-\text{(Reduction)}$
