Here are a few from a list I am compiling, some elements can have multiple charge types, which are notated with the Roman numerals, such as Cu (I) or Au (III):
+1 Charge [Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, Cesium, Copper (I), Silver, Francium, Gold (I), Gallium (I), Indium (I), Thallium (I), Hydrogen, Titanium (I), and Mercury (I)]
+2 Charge [Magnesium, Calcium, Strontium, Barium, Cadmium, Chromium (II), Cobalt (II), Copper (II), Iron (II), Lead (II), Manganese (II), Mercury (II), Nickel (II), Tin (II), Vanadium (II), and Zinc]
+3 Charge [Aluminum, Chromium (III), Iron (III), Vanadium (III), Yttrium, Scandium, Gallium (III), Indium (III), Thallium (III), Bismuth, Arsenic (III), Cerium (III), Cobalt (III), Gold (III), Titanium (III), Manganese (III)]
+4 Charge [Lead (IV), Vanadium (IV), Tin (IV), Cerium (IV), Titanium (IV), Germanium (IV)]
-1 Charge [Fluoride, Chloride, Bromide, Iodide]
-2 Charge [Oxide, Sulfide, Selenide, Telluride]
-3 Charge [Nitride, Phosphide]
-4 Charge [Carbide, Silicide]

Transition elements usually have more than one oxidation number. In different oxidation numbers, the ions show different colors. Some of the ranges: Cu from +1 to +2; Cr from +2 to +6; Ni from +2 to +3; Co from +2 to +3 and Mn from +2 to +7.
It shows some oxidation numbers. Generally it shows +4 oxidation numbers.
No, not all metals have two oxidation numbers. Some metals may have multiple oxidation numbers depending on the bonding situation and the compounds they form.
A metal typically has only positive oxidation numbers, while a nonmetal can have both positive and negative oxidation numbers. Metals tend to lose electrons (positive oxidation numbers) to form cations, while nonmetals can gain or lose electrons to form a variety of oxidation states.
The oxidation number of an atom in its elemental form is 0. In a compound, the sum of oxidation numbers must equal the overall charge of the compound. In a polyatomic ion, the sum of oxidation numbers must equal the charge of the ion. Some elements have fixed oxidation numbers (e.g., alkali metals +1, alkaline earth metals +2).

Some of the elements exhibiting variable oxidation numbers are carbon (+4, -4); oxygen and selenium (-2 to +6); nitrogen and phosphorus (-3 to +5) halogens (except fluorine) (-1 to +7) and most of the transition metals and f block elements.

No, ions are charged particles that can be either single atoms or groups of atoms. When an ion consists of a single atom, it is called a monatomic ion, such as Na+ or Cl-. When an ion consists of a group of atoms bonded together, it is called a polyatomic ion, such as SO4^2- or NH4+.
The oxidation number of an atom in its elemental form is 0. In a compound, the sum of oxidation numbers must equal the overall charge of the compound. In a polyatomic ion, the sum of oxidation numbers must equal the charge of the ion. Some elements have fixed oxidation numbers (e.g., alkali metals +1, alkaline earth metals +2).
There is at least one oxidation number shared by all the elements in a periodic table column, but some of the elements may have more than one oxidation number and some of these additional oxidation numbers may not be possible for all the elements in a column.
oxidation
The oxidation number is 0 in elemental form. It can have other oxidation numbers as -2, +4 and +6 in its compounds such as H2S, SO2 and SO3 respectively.-2, 0, 2, 4 and 6 oxidation states
Most nonmetals typically have negative oxidation numbers when in compounds, such as -1 for halogens (F, Cl, Br, I) and -2 for oxygen (O). However, some nonmetals like nitrogen (N) can have positive oxidation numbers depending on the compound.
Elemental sulphur, like all other elements, has an oxidation number of zero(0). However, when combined with other elements into molecules, it displays different oxidation number.s H2S = -2 SO2 = +4 SO3 = +6 H2SO4 = + 6
