Document Summary

A gives electrons to b: a is reducing b, a is being oxidized. B accepts electrons from a: b is oxidizing a, b is being reduced. Measure of the tendency (willingness) of a chemical species to accept electrons and be reduced. Nb: the same for both the oxidized and the reduced state - value is the same before and after it gave/accepted electrons. More negative e = lower redox potential = higher energy: greater tendency to give rather than accept electrons. More positive e = greater redox potential = lower energy: greater tendency to accept rather than give electrons. For a reaction, greater e = more energy = more atp. Electrons going from lower redox potential (higher energy) to higher redox potential (lower energy) produces atp: going from negative e to positive e produces energy. Electrons going from higher redox potential (lower energy) to lower redox potential (higher energy: going from positive e to negative e requires energy.
