Elemental Cl has zero O.number . In compounds it depend upon charge of ion
Atomic chlorine has 0 as oxidation number. The oxidation state of chlorine ion, which is made with metals is -1. When forming oxychloride anions, the oxidation state of chlorine may change from 0 to +7.

∙ 15y agoThe oxidation number for Cl, or Chlorine, is Cl-1. The element is in the seventh element on the Periodic Table, which means that it has seven outer shell electrons.. Since the element wants to become stable, and it only it needs 8 valence electrons. So therefore, it has to gain one electrons. Gaining an electron will make the element negative.
