+1 for K
-2 for each O
+5 for N
The oxidation number of N in the formula KNO3 is +5.
The oxidation state of an individual nitrogen atom in KNO3 is +5.
In K3N K has an oxidation number of +1
+1 for K, +5 for N, -2 for each O
In KNO3 the oxidation number of potassium (K) is 1+, for nitrogen (N) it is 5+, and for each oxygen (O) it is 2-
Oxidation number of N is +3. Oxidation number of Cl is -1.
Oxidation number of N is +3. Oxidation number of H is -1.
There are NO carbon (C) atoms in potassium nitrate (KNO3). B.t.w. atoms always have an oxidation state to be zero.

There are NO carbon (C) atoms in potassium nitrate (KNO3). B.t.w. atoms always have an oxidation state to be zero.
Oxidation number of N is +1. Oxidation number of O is -2.
The oxidation number of NO, nitrogen oxide, is +3.
KNO3 has no oxidation number. However, the individual atoms do each have an oxidation number. Using oxygen as the 'yardstick' at '-2' ; NB There are exceptions this rule. There are 3 oxygens, so the oxygen component has an oxidation of 3 x -2 = -6. So for it to be a neutrally charge molecule the potassium and the nitrogen must sum to +6. Since potassium only loses one electron its oxidation number is '+1'. It follows that nitrogen must be in oxidation state '+5' Summarising;- Potassium(K) = +1 Nitrogen(N) = +5 Oxygen(O) = 3 x -2 = -6 +1+5-6 = 0 NB Nitrogen , like sulphur and phosphorus exhibit various oxidation states. =
In Ag NO3 the oxidation number of Ag (Silver) is 1+, the oxidation number of N (Nitrogen) is 5+, and the oxidation number of O (Oxygen) is 2-.
