The rules for using group number to predict oxidation state are that the element must be ionized and a number line must be used.
Hydrogen has -1 and +1 oxidation numbers. Other elements have +1 only
Group 1 elements have +1 oxidation number (except for hydrogen) All group 2 elements have +2 oxidation number Fluoride ion always has -1
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?
The Oxidation number is determined by how many electrons are lost and gained. So, when gaining combining the elements you use the oxidation numbers to predict your compound.

all the pure elements have zero oxidation state.....

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.
all the pure elements have zero oxidation state.....
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.
