Reduction is a reaction which results in a in electrons and a in positive charge of the atom or ion 1) a- loss 1) b- gain 2) a-increase 2) b-decrease

Hello! Your answer would be a gain of electrons and a decrease in positive charge.

Contrary to how it sounds, reduction is actually a gain of electrons. It is part of a set of reactions known as a redox reaction, reduction being a gain of electrons and oxidation being a loss.

With the gain of electrons, the element would become more negative as electrons bring with them a negative charge. Therefore, this would decrease the positive charge.

Hope this helped!

I believe that the answers are:

1) loss

2) increase
