Can the oxidation number of an element change?
Yes, it can. When the element loses electron, the oxidation number increases and when it gains electron, the oxidation number decreases.
Which element has largest oxidation number?
Manganese is a metal element. It shows the largest oxidation number.
What is the oxidation number of a free element?
Oxidation number of a free element is 0. Ex: Ag 2= 0
How does the oxidation number change when an element is oxidized?
Oxidation means there's an increase in oxidation number. Reduction means there's a decrease in oxidation number.
An element that may have an oxidation number of 4 or 4?
Element Phosphorus has an oxidation state of -4. No element has oxidation state of +4. Phosphorus is denoted by "P".
