In the compound H2S hydrogen has an oxidation number of 1 plus and sulfur has an oxidation number of?

Think about it, the overall charge of CaH2 is neutral (meaning a charge of 0). One of the oxidation rules states that H has a charge of -1 if it is apart of a hydride (Ex LiH, CaH2 is also a hydride). Because there are 2 Hs, it's charge would be -2. If you add the charge of calcium which is 2 with the hydrogens charge -2 you would get 0, which is right because the molecule is neutral. 1- Apex


What is the oxidation number of K in KH2PO4?

The oxidation number of hydrogen in KH is -1, because the only oxidation number for potassium in a simple inorganic compound is +1. A hydrogen atom can complete its outer electron shell by adding one electron acquire the electron configuration of helium, and this is what happens during the formation of alkali metal hydrides such as KH.
