Expert Solution
Step 1

pH is the negative log of Hions concentration. It indicates the acidity of a solution. When the H+ ions concentration is high, then the solution is acidic and pH would be less. If H+ concentration is low then the pH would be high and hence the solution would be basic.

Oxidation is the loss of electrons from the molecules, atom or ion. It increases the oxidation state of molecule. It is called a reducing agent because it reduces the other molecule by donating electrons. On the other hand, the reduction is the gain of electron to the molecule, atom or ion. It decreases the oxidation state of the molecule. It is called oxidizing agent because it receives electrons from the atom making it oxidized.
