The oxidation number of halogens is?
Most common is -1. But halogens (except fluorine) are known to exhibit oxidation numbers upto +7 in their compounds.
What element has -1 as an oxidation number?
The halogens (group 17) have an oxidation number of -1, though the halogens below fluorine can have other oxidation numbers as well. Hydrogen can also have an oxidation number of -1 when it forms hydrides.
What does an oxidation number of -1 mean?
A valence of -1, a monovalent anion as halogens ions.
What is the common oxidation number for all halogens?
Minus one, in their most common compounds.
Halogens are only found in nature as what?
All the three states of matter are represented by the halogens.
Do the halogens have different numbers of valence electrons?
no, but lower halogens have different oxidation states.
When do halogens show 1 and -1 oxidation states?
When halogens bind to more electropositive elements (compared it itself), they show -1 oxidation state. When halogens bind to more electronegative elements (compared it itself), they show +1 oxidation state.
What is the state of halogens?
Oxidation

What is the oxidation state of all halogens?
-1
Can an oxidation number be 1?
Yes. All of the halogens usually have this oxidation number in their compounds.
In the compound Fe2O3 iron's oxidation number is plus 3 and oxygen's oxidation number is .?
Usually, oxygen has an oxidation of -2 (that is unless in a compound with peroxides or halogens).
What does an oxidation number of -1 mean?
A valence of -1, a monovalent anion as halogens ions.
What is the common oxidation number for all halogens?
Minus one, in their most common compounds.
What are protactinium chemical properties?
Protactinium react with oxygen, hydrogen, sulfur, halogens, many other elements, mineral acids.The Pauling electronegativity is 1,5. Oxidation states are 2, 3, 4 and 5.
Halogens are only found in nature as what?
All the three states of matter are represented by the halogens.
