What is the oxidation number for group 2 elements?
Hydrogen has -1 and +1 oxidation numbers. Other elements have +1 only
Elements that have a single oxidation number?
Group 1 elements have +1 oxidation number (except for hydrogen) All group 2 elements have +2 oxidation number Fluoride ion always has -1
What is the oxidation number of group 1 elements?
+1 only for all elements (except for hydrogen) hydrogen can have +1 and -1 as their oxidation numbers.
What is the oxidation number of the elements in group 1 of the periodic table?
Group 1 elements are the most electropositive in nature and have only 1 valence electron. So, they always show the oxidation state of +1.
What is the oxidation number of group 17 elements?
There are some numbers. Every element shows -1 number.

What is the oxidation number of group 1 elements?
+1 only for all elements (except for hydrogen) hydrogen can have +1 and -1 as their oxidation numbers.
Why do elements in group one have plus 1 oxidation number?
Because they have one valence electrons, and if they lose this electron they attain an oxidation number of +1
What is the oxidation number of the elements in group 1 of the periodic table?
Group 1 elements are the most electropositive in nature and have only 1 valence electron. So, they always show the oxidation state of +1.
What is the common oxidation number for all elements in group 17 of the periodic table?
-1.
What is the oxidation number of group 17 elements?
There are some numbers. Every element shows -1 number.
Which elements have oxidation number 1?
Potassium and Lithium
Why do elements in group 17 have an oxidation number of -1?
Because they require one electron to complete their octet
What group of elements can have more then 1 oxidation number?
Predominantly, the transition elements, but also hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen. Actually all elements that have reactions can have more than one oxidation number in the sense that their oxidation number is 0 when they are in pure form and usually is some other value when they are in compounds.
What is group 17 oxidation number?
-1 only for F Other elements could have -1 to +7 depending on the compound
Elements with an oxidation number of 1 include what elements?
The oxidation number of lead (Pb) in the compound PbCl2 has to be what?
