    redox reactions deal with the transfer of electrons from one species to another species

    redox reactions are made of reduction reactions and oxidation reactions

    reduction reactions are when electrons take in electrons and results in a decrease in the oxidation number

    oxidation reactions are when electrons give out electrons resulting in an increase in the oxidation number

    therefore correct answer for reduction reactions are

    (3) gain electrons and have a decrease in oxidation number
