Oxidation State is -1.

This is because N= 5 AND O=-2

5+3*(-2)=-1

Oxidation number of no3?

If you are referring to the nitrate ion, NO3-, the oxidation number of oxygen would be O2- and nitrogen would be N5+. If you are talking about nitrogen trioxide NO3, the oxidation number of oxygen would be O2- and nitrogen would be N6+. Edit: Nitrogen trioxide does not exist in its free state.

What is the oxidation number of nitrogen in NO3?

The Oxidation number is an apparent charge on a single atom in an ion or molecule in Nitrate the Oxidation number of Nitrogen is +5 and -6 for three oxygen atoms (-2 each) so net charge on Nitrate ion is -1.


What is the cris cross method of aluminium and nitrogen?

The crisscross method uses the oxidation state (valence) of each element or ion. In this example, aluminum (Al) has an oxidation number of 3+. Nitrogen has an oxidation number of 3-. So, there really is no crisscross, because they are both the same, and they would combine to make aluminum nitride, AlN. If, however, you had aluminum, and nitrate ion (NO3^-), the crisscross would be to make the Al subscript a 1 and the NO3- subscript 3 to give Al(NO3)3.
