A redox reaction is a type of reaction which involves transfer of electrons among two species. This reaction is also called oxidation-reduction reaction.

In oxidation process, there is an increase in oxidation state of an atom, ion or molecule by losing the electrons.

In reduction process, there is a decrease in oxidation state of an atom, ion or molecule by accepting the electrons.

1)

In this reaction, Ba undergoes oxidation and Cl undergoes reduction.
This reaction is redox reaction.
In this reaction, oxidation number of Ba increases from 0 to +2 . So, Ba undergoes oxidation. The oxidation number of Cl decreases from 0 to -1. So, Cl undergoes reduction.

2) 

From this above reaction, it is clear that Aluminum undergoes oxidation and silver undergoes reduction.
Due to this, this reaction is redox reaction.

In this reaction, oxidation number of Aluminum increases from 0 to +1. So, aluminum undergoes oxidation. The oxidation number of silver decreases from +1 to 0. So, silver undergoes reduction.

3)

In this reaction, Mg undergoes oxidation and Br undergoes reduction.
This reaction is redox reaction.
The reactions 1, 3 and 4 are redox reactions.
In this reaction, oxidation number of Mg increases from 0 to +2 . So, Mg undergoes oxidation. The oxidation number of Br decreases from 0 to -1 . So, Br undergoes reduction.

Hence all the above reactions are redox reactions.

Teens drinking are at risk of date rape, becoming an alcoholic, HIV and other STDs.

About 150 - 200 species of plant, insect, bird and mammal become extinct every day or 24 hrs.

This is not an accurate but an estimation by U.N. Convention on Biological Diversity and Global Extinction Rates. It is also said that current extinctions were 'up to 100 times higher than the background rate.'

Assemblers are used to translate a program written in a low-level assembly language into a machine code (object code) file so it can be used and executed by the computer.

Hence, Assembler is the translator program used in assembly language.

The Preamble was adopted with the constitution in the constituent assembly.

The Preamble proclaims the solemn resolution of the people of India to constitute India into a 'Sovereign socialist secular democratic republic'.

Chemical weathering is what happens when rocks are broken down and chemically altered.

Chemical weathering is the breakdown of rocks by chemical reactions. Chemical weathering involves changes in the chemical composition of the existing rock to form new rock. Some examples of chemical weathering are hydrolysis, oxidation, carbonation, dissolution, etc.
