-3
In the compound HF, the oxidation number of hydrogen (H) is +1 and the oxidation number of fluorine (F) is -1. This is because fluorine is more electronegative than hydrogen, so it takes on a -1 oxidation state while hydrogen takes on a +1 oxidation state.
The ammonium ion has net charge of +1. The central nitrogen atom is bonded to four hydrogen atoms which have oxidation status +1. The oxidation number of nitrogen is -3 after balancing the charges.
No. Fluorine has only two oxidation states. 0 in F2 and -1 in fluoride ion
FClO4 is the name of Fluorine perchlorate.Here Chlorine is in +7 oxidation state, Fluorine is in -1 oxidation state, 3 atoms of Oxygen (that are double bonded to Chlorine) are in -2 oxidation state, and the forth Oxygen atom (which is connected to Fluorine and Chlorine) is in 0 oxidation state.So, total charge = 7(of Chlorine) -1(of Fluorine) -(2 * 3)(of 3 Oxygen) +0(of Fourth Oxygen) = 0
There are actually seven elements that fit that description - hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine.
In the compound HF, the oxidation number of hydrogen (H) is +1 and the oxidation number of fluorine (F) is -1. This is because fluorine is more electronegative than hydrogen, so it takes on a -1 oxidation state while hydrogen takes on a +1 oxidation state.
The oxidation state of the nitrogen atom in HNO3 is +5. This is because oxygen is typically assigned an oxidation state of -2, and hydrogen is +1. In HNO3, the total oxidation states of the hydrogen and oxygen atoms sum to zero, leaving nitrogen with an oxidation state of +5 to balance the charge.
No. HNO3 already has hydrogen and nitrogen in their highest possible oxidation states.
The elements that are diatomic in their natural state are hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine. This means they exist as molecules composed of two atoms when in their elemental form.
The ammonium ion has net charge of +1. The central nitrogen atom is bonded to four hydrogen atoms which have oxidation status +1. The oxidation number of nitrogen is -3 after balancing the charges.

Fluorine is a highly electronegative element that forms very strong bonds with hydrogen, making it difficult for fluorine to lose hydrogen ions and form oxoacids. Additionally, fluorine's small size and high charge density make it energetically unfavorable for fluorine to exhibit oxidation states other than -1, which are required for oxoacid formation.
The oxidation state of nitrogen in HNO3 is +5 because oxygen is assigned an oxidation state of -2 and hydrogen is assigned an oxidation state of +1. The sum of the oxidation states must equal the overall charge of the molecule (zero in this case for a neutral compound).
There are actually seven elements that fit that description - hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine.
The oxidation states of halogens can range from -1 to +7. Fluorine typically has an oxidation state of -1, while the other halogens (chlorine, bromine, iodine) can have oxidation states from -1 to +7 depending on the compound and bonding.
Nitrogen can exist in oxidation states ranging from -3 to +5. Some common nitrogen compounds with different oxidation states include ammonia (NH3) in the -3 oxidation state, nitric oxide (NO) in the +2 oxidation state, nitrogen dioxide (NO2) in the +4 oxidation state, and nitric acid (HNO3) in the +5 oxidation state.
