Subject: organic Chemistry Instruction: Classify each reaction as oxidation, reduction, or neither. My notes: I tried to answer I, K and L by using the given table in our textbook, but my answers were wrong, can anyone please explain why I is oxidation, K still as oxidation even though there's a presence of H2O that should be classified in "neither", and L as reduction for the first step and oxidation for the second step. Please explain! Thank you!

OXIDATION: addition of O or O2; addition of X2 (halogens); loss of Hz
REDUCTION: addition of H2 (or H¯); loss of O or O2; loss of X2
NEITHER: addition or loss of H*, "OH, H,O, HX, etc. is neither an oxidation
nor a reduction.
