What is the usual oxidation number for oxygen in a compound?
oxygen compound=p
What is the oxidation number of carbon in carbonate?
Carbon has an oxidation number of +4 in both carbonate and bicarbonate. Oxygen as usual has an oxidation number of -2, and hydrogen has an oxidation number of +1. Therefore, the ion CO3-2 has six negative charges from oxygen partly balanced by four positive changes from carbon for a net of -2, and HCO3-1 has six negative charges from oxygen partly balanced by one positive from hydrogen and needs for plus four from carbon for an overall value of -1.
What is usual state of oxygen and hydrogen?
The usual state of oxygen and hydrogen: they are gases at room temperature.
What is the oxidation number of antimony in Sb2O5?
Minimum oxidation number: -3, Maximum oxidation number: 5
What is the usual oxidation for oxygen?
In most compounds oxygen will have an oxidation state of -2. The only exceptions are peroxides (-1), superoxides (-1/2), and compounds in which oxygen bonds with fluorine (+1 or +2).
What is the usual oxidation number for oxygen in a compound?
oxygen compound=p
What is the usual oxidation number if hydrogen?
+1 for hydrogen in most of the compounds and -1 in hydrides and hydrocarbons

What is the oxidation number of Li in Li2?
The rule for hydrogen is that it normally has an oxidation state of +1, EXCEPT in metal hydrides, when it has an oxidation state of -1.Li is a metal, LiH is a metal hydride.Does that tell you what you need to know?
How many atoms in 4 Hydrogen's and 2 oxygen's?
4 + 2 = 6, as usual.
What is hydrogen's usual TOMIC STRUTURE?
Can structure mean number
How does a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen differ from hydrogen and oxygen?
When hydrogen and oxygen are kindled in the right quantities, then we mostly don't call the product a mixture. Rather we call it a compound. The most usual compound of hydrogen and oxygen is water. Its not important that the compound should have the properties of its constituting elements. If we that water as an example, then we all know that water is a non supporter of combustion whereas hydrogen and oxygen are highly inflammable gases.
What is the oxidation number of in KIO4?
+1 for K -2 for each O +7 for I
