What is the oxidation number of a free element?
Oxidation number of a free element is 0. Ex: Ag 2= 0
Is there an interesting fact about the element boron?
How about this: Boron is never found as a free element on Earth.
How does the name of the element in each compound differ from that of the free element?
the second element or the negative one ends in ide. While a free element would just end the way it normally would. example: if you were trying to combine Aluminum and oxygen the compounds name would be aluminum oxide.
DID OXIDATION AND REDUCTION PROCCED SIMULATANEOUSLY?
Oxidation is an element or an ion getting a positive charge by removing valence electrons and Reduction is an element or an ion getting a negative charge by gaining free electrons. In chemical reactions reduction occurs by gaining the free electrons emitted by oxidation. Therefor oxidation and reduction proceed simultaneously.Oxidation is an element or an ion getting a positive charge by removing valence electrons and Reduction is an element or an ion getting a negative charge by gaining free electrons.

A certain essential element is not usable to organisms in its free state special bacteria can fix it into a form that is usable the element is?
nitrogen
Is Cl2 an element?
Cl, chlorine is an element, Cl2 is the molecular form of the element. When 'free' chlorine is so reactive that it will react with itself to form diatomic (2 atoms) molecules, but it is still an element.
A certain essential element is not usable to organisms in its free state?
nitrogen
