Answer:

Electrons.

Explanation:

In a oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction,

  • The species that loses electrons is oxidized.
  • The species that gains electrons is reduced.

The word "[tex]\verb!OILRIG![/tex]" can be a mnemonic for this definition :

  • Oxidation is losing electrons.
  • Reduction is gaining electrons.
