What is the oxidation number on N2?
Oxidation numbers are defined for atoms, not molecules such as N2. The oxidation number of both atoms in a divalent elemental molecule is specified to be 0, as is the oxidation number of an atom of an element for which one atom constitutes a molecular unit.
What is the sum of the oxidation numbers in the phosphate ion?
-3. The sum of oxidation numbers of the atoms in all polyatomic ion is the net charge - its part of the definition of oxidation number.
Why must oxidation numbers be assigned to the elements before writing a chemical formula?
The oxidation numbers of the elements in a chemical formula, some of which will be positive and others of which will be negative, when multiplied by the numbers of atoms with each oxidation number, must produce products that add to a net result of zero.
What is the oxidation number of H3PO4?
In H3PO4 the oxidation number forH is +1P is +5O is -2

In the compound Fe2O3 irons oxidation number is while oxygens oxidation number is 2?
The oxidation number of iron in this compound is 3. The oxidation numbers of the total oxygen atoms and the total iron atoms must be the same in a neutral compound. There are three oxygen atoms, giving a total for oxygen of 3 X 2 = 6. There are only two iron atoms; therefore, each one must have an oxidation number of 6/2 = 3.
What is the oxidation state of cl in clo2?
This is a gas compound. Chlorine shows +4 as the oxidation number.
What is the final oxidation number of gold and zinc respectively?
Gold and zinc atoms have 0 as their oxidation number. The oxidation numbers in zinc changes from 0 to +2. The range for gold is 0 to +4.
What is the oxidation number for each element in Mg plus O?
The oxidation numbers for the atoms in magnesium oxide are: Mg+2 and O-2.
What does the common oxidation number mean?
The common oxidation number means any number that indicates the charge of atoms when an electron is either lost, gained, or shared in a chemical bond. It is known as the ion's number. Also, oxidation numbers in all atoms in a compound must add up to zero.
How do you determine the numbers of atoms in a chemical equation?
It is necessary to balance the number of atoms for reactantas and products.
