What is the oxidation number in SIO2?

Answer 1

Silicon oxide is a giant covalent lattice. Every silicon atom has four single covalent bonds with oxygen and every oxygen atom has two single covalent bonds with silicon. The oxidation state of silicon is +4.

Answer 2

The oxidation number of Si in SiO2 is +4 because oxygen typically has an oxidation number of -2 and there are 2 oxygen atoms bonded to the silicon atom. The sum of the oxidation numbers in a neutral compound like SiO2 must equal zero.

Answer 3

In SiO2, silicon is in its 4+ oxidation state and oxygen is in its 2- oxidation state.

Answer 4

Formula SiO2 oxidation value's

Si: +4 and O: -2

Answer 5
