what are electron transfer reactions?

 

[Trebla]

Consider element A and another element B (assume it is less reactive than B). In an electron transfer reaction, one or more electrons move from A and become received by B.

A + B --> Aⁿ⁺ + B^n-

In this reaction, n electrons are removed from A (giving the n+ charge) and are transferred to B (giving the n- charge)...
