Chemists observe the ratio with which a given element combines with other elements. That is how all the conclusions about oxidation states are derived. Since we also have data on the atomic weight of elements, we can weigh a given sample and know how many moles it contains. If one mole of rubidium combines with one mole of chlorine, we can conclude that rubidium has an oxidation state of 1, combining evenly with chlorine, which has an oxidation state of minus one. Millions and millions of different chemical reactions have been observed, and all this observation has been analysed to determine what the elements are actually doing.
0 and 1 oxidation states
O = -2 oxidation state H = +1 oxidation state
K = +1 oxidation state Cl = +3 oxidation state O = -2 oxidation state
+(1+0)/2 oxidation state
The oxidation state of Hg in Hg2Cl2 is +1.It has +1 state.
1+ (it is in group 1)
0 and 1 oxidation states
It's just Rubidium Sulfate. The name rubidium sulfate (sulfate is SO3)assumes that people can figure out the chemical formula based on the oxidation numbers of rubidium (+1) and sulfate (-2) and crisscrossing to get a net oxidation number of zero.
0 in elemental form and +1 in its compounds
O = -2 oxidation state H = +1 oxidation state
-2 oxidation state
The oxidation state is +1 for hydrogen and -1 for chlorine.
This oxidation state is 1.
Almost any metal could have an ON/OS of +1. Those that have a common state of +1 include silver, sodium, potassium, mercury, lithium, rubidium, caesium, thalium and francium.
0, 1 and 2 oxidation states
Fe = +3 oxidation state Cl = -1 oxidation state
K = +1 oxidation state Cl = +3 oxidation state O = -2 oxidation state
