Reactions at electrodes The reduction and oxidation processes responsible for the overall reaction in a cell are separated in space: oxidation takes place in one electrode compartment and reduction takes place in the other compartment.As the reaction proceeds,the electrons released in the oxidation Red1→Ox+ze at one electrode travel through the external circuit and re-enter the cell through the other electrode.There they bring about reduction: Ox2+ze→Red So,the electric mechanism of electrolyte solution includes the reactions of electrodes and the ions movements in the solution.
