HClO2
As a yardstick, always use oxygen at '-2' . There are a number of exceptions, but when learning oxidation states, think!!! Oxygen ; -2.
In HClO2 there are two oxygens hence 2 x -2 = -4 for the oxygen component.
Hence the 'H' & 'Cl' must sum to '+4' ; for the neutrally charged molecule.
So 'H' can only oxidise one electron , then 'H' is '+1' . This leaves '+3' for the chlorine component.
So Chlorine is in oxidation state '+3'
Oxidation states of atoms in a molecule refer to the number of electrons in the outermost energy shell that are involved in bonding. Since 'H' has only one electron it can only use that one electron to bond hence its oxidation state is '+1'. However, a chlorine atom has seven electrons in its outermost electron shell, three of these electrons are involved in bonding with the oxygen and hydrogen .
NB; Chlorine has the ability to Disproportionate, that is both loose and gain electrons. Think water and chlorine forming HCL & HClO.
Hope that helps!!!!
I assume that's supposed to be Cl (capital C, lower case L). The formal oxidation state of chlorine in chlorous acid is +3.
The oxidation state of Cl in HCIO2 is +3. This is because hydrogen is typically assigned an oxidation state of +1 and oxygen is typically assigned an oxidation state of -2, so the sum of the oxidation states in HClO2 must equal the charge of the ion, which is 0 in this case.
The oxidation state of Cl in HClO2 is +3. This can be calculated by adding up the oxidation states of each atom in the compound, which would be +1 for H, -2 for O, and +3 for Cl in this case.
The oxidation state of chlorine is 5.
The name for HCIO3 is chloric acid.

HCIO
'+5'
The name for HCIO3 is chloric acid.
The physical state of chlorine at STP is a gas. It is a poisonous green/yellow gas, with a very distinctive odour of bleach . The name 'Chlorine' comes from the Classical Greek 'Chlorus' meaning 'Green' , because of its colour.
Chlorous acid has 1 H atom, 1 Cl atom and 2 oxygen atoms.
