Group 1 elements have +1 oxidation number (except for hydrogen)
All group 2 elements have +2 oxidation number
Fluoride ion always has -1
Hydrogen has -1 and +1 oxidation numbers. Other elements have +1 only
Elements with positive oxidation number easily combined with those having a negative oxidation number because opposite oxidation number attracts each other.
The oxidation number of lead (Pb) in the compound PbCl2 has to be what?
There is at least one oxidation number shared by all the elements in a periodic table column, but some of the elements may have more than one oxidation number and some of these additional oxidation numbers may not be possible for all the elements in a column.
The way in which elements bond to form compounds depends on the arrangement and number of electrons in the atoms. This is what will determine the type of boding that elements will form.
Hydrogen has -1 and +1 oxidation numbers. Other elements have +1 only
all the pure elements have zero oxidation state.....

A neutral atom has an oxidation number of 0. An anion has a negative oxidation number. The oxidation number of a cation is positive.
Elements in group 2 mostly takes the oxidation number +II.
For example the atomic number of oxygen is 8.
