the oxidation number is 0
Element Phosphorus has an oxidation state of -4. No element has oxidation state of +4. Phosphorus is denoted by "P".
The oxidation state of calcium is +2.
The element oxidation state is a chemical property: it is zero for all elements.
The oxidation state of an element is determined by the number of electrons the element needs to lose or gain to have a full valence electron shell.
Oxidation state of any element in its elemental state is 0
Mercury's most common oxidation state is +2
The highest oxidation state for an element is +7, but this is not unique to any one element: All of the halogen elements except fluorine have oxyacids with this oxidation state.
all the pure elements have zero oxidation state.....
The oxidation state of any lone element is zero.
if you mean iodine in its elemental state, the the oxidation state is zero, as for any element in its elemental state, the oxidation state is always zero
In a compound the sum of oxidation states of the elements contained is zero.E1 + E2 + ... = 0If you know the oxidation states of the elements E1... you can calculate the oxidation state of the element E2.
In chemistry, the oxidation state is a number assigned to an element as an indicator of the degree of oxidation of an atom in a chemical compound."The charge an element would have if it were an ion "Oxidation state is the same as the oxidation number. It is an indicator of the degree of oxidation of an atom in a chemical compound.
