To write chemical formulas with oxidation numbers, first determine the oxidation number of each element in the compound based on their typical values. Then, use these oxidation numbers to balance the charges of cations and anions in the compound. Finally, write the chemical formula using subscripts to ensure that the overall charge of the compound is neutral.

What compounds can be formed from element X with oxidation number 3 plus and 5 plus and element Z with oxidation numbers 2- and 3- write their formulas?
With element X having oxidation numbers +3 and +5, compounds can form with element Z having oxidation numbers -2 and -3. Some possible compounds could be XZ2 (oxidation numbers cancel out) and XZ3 (oxidation numbers cancel out).
How are oxidation number determined and used?
This may best be demonstrated by example: Here are two forms (read: oxidation numbers) of iron, as FeO and Fe2O3. Because we know oxygen has a -2 charge per atom, the oxidation number of Fe in FeO is II. As for Fe2O3, we know that the oxidation number of Fe is III; there is no charge on the compound, so the two iron molecules must equally offset the -6 charge from the three oxygen atoms. Oxidation numbers are written as roman numerals. You would write these two forms of iron oxide as iron(II) oxide and iron(III) oxide, respectively. Oxidation states are the (+) or (-) charges written as a superscript.
How are chemical formulas written do they use superscripts or subscripts?
Chemical formulas are written with the chemical symbol of each element followed by a subscript. If no subscript is written, it is understood to be 1. In a molecular formula, the subscripts indicate the number of atoms of each element that are present in one molecule. In a chemical formula for an ionic compound, the subscripts represent the lowest whole number ratio of ions in the compound.
What is a method to indicate reactants and products of a chemical reaction using chemical formulas?
In a correctly written chemical equation, reactants are the substances to the left of the arrow, and products are the substances to the right of the arrow. The reactants are what you have before the reaction starts, and the products are what you have when the reaction is over.
When copper is heated in air write chemical equation?
When copper is heated in air, it undergoes oxidation to form copper(II) oxide. The chemical equation for this process is: 2Cu(s) + O2(g) → 2CuO(s)

What do you use oxidation numbers and their least common multiples to write?
They are used to write balanced chemical equations.
What are the Stock system names for the following compounds?
The Stock system is the current system to write chemical formulas; oxidation states are in parentheses, with Roman numerals.
What compounds can be formed from element X with oxidation number 3 plus and 5 plus and element Z with oxidation numbers 2- and 3- write their formulas?
With element X having oxidation numbers +3 and +5, compounds can form with element Z having oxidation numbers -2 and -3. Some possible compounds could be XZ2 (oxidation numbers cancel out) and XZ3 (oxidation numbers cancel out).
How do you write a balanced equation for the oxidation of sucrose?

How do you write formulas for complex ions?
To write formulas for complex ions, start by writing the symbol of the central metal cation. Then, add the ligands around the central metal cation. Use coordination numbers and oxidation states to balance the charges of the ions within the complex. Finally, enclose the entire complex in square brackets and indicate the charge outside the bracket.

What compounds can be formed from element X with oxidation number 3 plus and 5 plus and element Z with oxidation numbers 2 and 3 write their formulas?
X(3+) and Z(2-) will give X2Z3. X(3+) and Z(3-) will give XZ. X(5+) and Z(2-) will give X2Z5. X(5+) and Z(3-) will give X3Z5.
How do you write chemical formulas in iwork pages?
The easiest way would be to learn superscript and subscript shortcuts. For eg: Sulphuric acid is H2SO4. Now highlight 2 and control+command+ minus shortcut makes it a subscript. Repeat it for every element.
What is the chemical symbol for nickelII?
Nickel(II) is the plus two (+2) oxidation state of nickel (Ni), and we write it Ni(II) or Ni++ when we set it down.
