  "term": "Conjugate redox pair",
  "field": "Industrial and trades",
  "definition": "A pair of chemical species that are interconverted by the gain or loss of electrons in a redox (reduction-oxidation) reaction. One species acts as the oxidizing agent and is reduced, while the other acts as the reducing agent and is oxidized. For example, in the reaction of Fe3+ with an electron to form Fe2+, Fe3+/Fe2+ constitutes a conjugate redox pair.",
