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.
This is because when we balance a redox reaction, the stoichiometric coefficients are such that the total positive Oxidation number in the reaction and the Total negative Oxidation number corresponds to the net charge of the reaction.
oxidation number of I is -1. oxidation number of F is +1.
Chlorine is in group 17. It easily accepts an electron from another element to fill its valence shell. As it takes one electron, its oxidation number changes to -1.
Zn has oxidation number +2; S has oxidation number -2

No, it is not a redox reaction. None of the oxidation numbers changes during the reaction. You have to determine the oxidation number for each element and see if it changes from reactant side to product side. If the oxidation number doesn't change, it is not a redox reaction.

Zn has oxidation number +2; S has oxidation number -2
Silicon's oxidation number is +4.Oxygen's oxidation number is -2
The oxidation number for H is +1, and the oxidation number for O is -1.
Oxidation number of Si is +4.Oxidation number of O is -2.
Carbon atoms oxidation number is +2.Hydrogen's oxidation number is +1.Oxygen's oxidation number is -2.
