Is a property that can have both positive and negative oxidation numbers a metal or nonmetal?
A property that can have both positive and negative oxidation numbers typically corresponds to a metal. Metals tend to lose electrons to form positive oxidation states and gain electrons to form negative oxidation states, while nonmetals typically gain electrons to form negative oxidation states.

The fundamental property of matter that may be identified as positive or negative is?
The fundamental property of matter that may be identified as positive or negative is electric charge. Positive charges are carried by protons, negative charges by electrons.
Is oxidizing a chemical or physical property?
It is a chemical because it is producing a new substance.
A magnet has both a positive side and a negative side. can you just have a magnet that is positive?
No, no matter what, magnets have poles. In other words, magnets will always have a positive and negative side. If you cut you magnet in half, those two new magnets will both have + and - sides. Do this infinity times until you have a magnet 1 atom thick. The atom will still have a positive and negative pole. Hope this helps.
Is Di-nitrogen Pentabromide a nonmetal?
No: The distinction between metals and nonmetals is a property of elements or mixtures of elements (alloys), but dinitrogen pentabromide is a compound.

charge
Which property causes atomic particles to attract or repel each other?
The property that causes atomic particles to attract or repel each other is their electric charge. Oppositely charged particles (positive and negative) attract each other, while particles with the same charge (positive-to-positive or negative-to-negative) repel each other.

What causes oxidation numbers?
Oxidation is a process of loss of electron(s) from an element or ion. After the lose of electron, the element becomes positively charged or if an undergoes oxidation then its positive charge is increased. For instance Sodium metal has 11 electrons and it can easily lose one electron (removing another electron is so difficult and it needs high energy) and becomes Na(+) ion. So its oxidation number is one.Hence, oxidation number refers number of electrons lost by an ion or element.Reverse of oxidation is called reduction or gain of electrons by an element or ion, in which the oxidation number is decreased. So in reduction process oxidation number is decreased.Oxidation number may be positive or negative for ions and it must be zero for an element. If it is positive then the ion is called cation and if negative then the ion is known as anion. It entirely depends on the property of losing or gaining of electrons by an element or ion.By,Dr M Kanagasabapathy Ph D,Asst.

What chemical property occurs when oxgyen reacts with iron?
This is an oxidation reaction.
Is the set of negative integers is closed under addition?
No, the set of negative integers is not closed under addition. When you add two negative integers, the result is always a negative integer. However, if you add a negative integer and a positive integer, the result can be a positive integer, which is not in the set of negative integers. Thus, the set does not satisfy the closure property for addition.
