The answer to your question is B) Reduction

- Reduction is when you have a gain in electrons while the oxidation numbers decrease. Please keep in mind that oxidation is the act of losing electrons while reduction is where you gain electrons. The answer choices C & D do not fit into the question.

With that being said, we may conclude that B) Reduction is the correct answer choice.
