How does the oxidation number indicate if an electron will be lost or gained?
If an atom loses electron, then it will have a positive oxidation number. If an atom gains electron, then it will have a negative oxidation number.
Can the oxidation number of an element change?
Yes, it can. When the element loses electron, the oxidation number increases and when it gains electron, the oxidation number decreases.
What is the electron configuration of atomic number 26?

Why oxidation number of fluorine is always -1?
Flourine has an oxidation number of -1 one because it only needs one electron to become stable ( to have neon's stractures), Hydrogen is the same thing. one electron away from being stable. oxidation numbers of elements are their electric charges on the periodic table. O2(g) has an oxidation number of 0, along with all the diatomics, Oxyden in a compound has ON of of -2, H has +1, the rest you calculate using algebra.
What happens to the electron configuration as the atomic number increases?
the elctron configuration increases
What is the electron configuration for boron?
1s2 2s2 2p1 is the electron configuration for boron, and it has a total of 5 electron. Just fill the orbital up with the elements total number of electrons until no more are left, then u have your electron configuration
