it goes from 0 to +1
The oxidation state of an element with oxidation state 0 cannot change, as it already has a balance of electrons.
In the reaction where Na is oxidized to Na+ in a chemical reaction, the oxidation state of Na changes from 0 to +1. This means that Na loses one electron and is oxidized.
Li(0) to Li(+1) when Na(+1) transforms to Na(0); 1 electron is transferred from Li(0) to Na(+1) in this redox reaction
The oxidation state of Na changes from 0 in Na to +1 in NaOH and then back to 0 in Na in the reaction. Na starts as a neutral metal atom, gains an electron in NaOH to have an oxidation state of +1, and then loses that electron to return to its neutral state in the final product.
In a redox reaction the OXIDATION numbers of some of the elements change from the reactants to the products. The numbers of atoms each element never changes in any chemical reaction.

This change is called oxidation (increase of ox. state) or reduction (decrease)

Yummy, Chemistry :) Redox reactions - Oxidation reaction This is a reaction in which atoms have undergone a change in their oxidation state.
Yes, because an element is in oxidation state ZERO. A reaction is redox only when there is a change in oxidation state of relevant species. So if a compound is formed from elements (as opposed to other compounds) there by definition has to be a change in oxidation state.
The oxidation state of Na changes from 0 in Na to +1 in NaOH and then back to 0 in Na in the reaction. Na starts as a neutral metal atom, gains an electron in NaOH to have an oxidation state of +1, and then loses that electron to return to its neutral state in the final product.

An element that increases its oxidation number in a reaction has been oxidized. This means it loses electrons or gains a more positive oxidation state. You can determine which element is oxidized by comparing the oxidation numbers of the element in the reactants and products of the reaction.
The oxidation number change for the iron atom in a reaction is from Fe^0 (elemental form) to Fe^2+ or Fe^3+ (ionic form). This represents an oxidation of the iron atom, as it loses electrons and increases its oxidation state.
The change in oxidation number of Cr depends on the specific reaction or compound involved. For example, in the reaction from Cr(III) to Cr(VI), the oxidation number of Cr changes from +3 to +6, indicating an increase in oxidation state.
it does not change -apex
