How is charge related to oxidation number?
the charge on a mono-atomic ion is the same as the oxidation number, for a polyatomic ion the charge is the sum of the oxidation numbers of its constituent elements.
What is the sum of the oxidation numbers in the phosphate ion?
-3. The sum of oxidation numbers of the atoms in all polyatomic ion is the net charge - its part of the definition of oxidation number.
Is sulphate a molecule?
No, sulfate is a polyatomic ion.
What is an polyatomic ion that contains oxygen?
SO4 sulfate
What does the formula SO4 2- stand for?
The polyatomic ion sulfate.
In Chemistry what is SO4-2?
SO4-2 is the polyatomic ion sulfate.
What portion of the compound magnesium sulfate mgso4 is a convalently bounded polyatomic ion?
The sulfate ion (SO42-) is the polyatomic ion

Name Na subscript 2 So subscript 4?
Na2 SO4? - SO4 is a polyatomic ion with a charge of -2. It is Sulfate. When you have a polyatomic after the first element, you do nothing to change the ending of the polyatomic ion. Since Na has an oxidation number of +1, Na2 creates a +2 which balances out with the -2 of sulfate. So, the name would be Sodium Sulfate. (Again, you do nothing with the ending of a Polyatomic | don't add an -ide at the end.Sodium Sulfate... (oh, and here's a helpful hint: if you havent already noticed, I believe that any compond with more than two elements will have a polyatomic ion. The polyatomic should be the symbols right after the first element, in this case Na - soduim...
What does the formula SO4 stand for?
The polyatomic ion sulfate.
What is an polyatomic ion that contains oxygen?
SO4 sulfate
Name the polyatomic ion SO42?
SO4-2The sulfate ion is a polyatomic ion made up of one sulfur atom and four oxygen atoms, that exists only if it can gain 2 electrons (from some metal cation or cations). It has a charge of -2. Note that this is the sulfate ion and not the sulfiteion.
What is the algebraic sum of the oxidation numbers of the atoms in the formula of a polyatomic ion?
In any neutral compound, this number must be zero.
What does the formula SO4 2- stand for?
The polyatomic ion sulfate.
What is the oxidation number of MN in 2MnO4-?
I assume you mean the oxidation number of Mn in the permanganate ion , MnO4- The sum of the oxidation numbers is the charge on a polyatomic ion so Mn has an oxidation number of +7 as each O is assigned -2.
