    The oxidation state of hydrogen gas is 0 and oxidation state of hydrogen cation is + 1.

    There’s an increase in oxidation number therefore it’s an oxidation reaction.

    Oxidation reactions give out electrons. The masses and charges on both sides should be balanced

    Half reaction is

    H2 - > 2H + + 2e
