I'm pretty sure it's -2 because everywhere i look i find the chemical formula as being NaHCO3 and if you add up those oxidation numbers then you get -2.

What is the oxidation state of Sodium Nitrate?
Sodium Oxide, or NaOH, has no oxidation state. It has a charge, which is zero. The elements that make up NaOH, however, do have oxidation states. The oxidation state of sodium (Na) is +1, and it will forever be +1 because it is impossible for it to be anything else, no matter what situation. The same applies for Hydrogen. Oxygen has an oxidation state of -2, and almost always will have an oxidation state of -2. There is one notable exception: H2O2. In this case, since the total charge of the compound is neutral and the oxidation state of Hydrogen must be +1 and, seeing as there are two hydrogens, bringing the overall charge up to 2, the oxidation state of oxygen must be -1. If it was -2, then the molecule would have an overall charge of -2.
What is the chemical name for NaHCO3 and NaC2H3O2?
NaHCO3 is sodium bicarbonate. NaC2H3O2 is sodium acetate.
What is the oxidation state of hydrogen in NaH?
Its oxidation number is -1, which is uncommon for hydrogen.
Do Na2O have a Roman numeral?
No, Na2O does not have a Roman numeral. When we talk about sodium oxide (Na2O), we are dealing with sodium and oxygen. We know that sodium has a +1 oxidation state in nearly everything it reacts with. You can pretty much bet on it. As it is essentially always going to combine in this +1 oxidation state, there is no need to differentiate that oxidation state from another one, which is what Roman numerals do.Oxygen has (almost always) a -2 oxidation state, and that means it takes two +1's to balance with a -2. Sodium, with its +1 oxidation state, will combine in a two-to-one ratio with oxygen, with its -2 oxidation state, to make the oxide.
Chemical name for sodium bicarbonate?
