Pb3O4 contains oxygen in the 2- oxidation state. and lead in the 2+ and 4+ oxidation states.
+ 6
in Pb3O4 the oxygen has an oxidation number of -2, the average oxidation number is a fraction (+8/3) so this must be a mixed oxidation sate compound. Teh two common Ox numbers of Pb are +2 and +4. the only way to make +8 overall is to have one Pb4+ and two Pb2+ This compound is a lovely red colour and is often called "red lead". Full marks to teacher - this is a tricky question!
oxidation number of I is -1. oxidation number of F is +1.
Zn has oxidation number +2; S has oxidation number -2
The oxidation number for H is +1, and the oxidation number for O is -1.
Oxidation number of Si is +4.Oxidation number of O is -2.
The nominal oxidation state of Pb in this compound is + 8/3, because oxygen is taken to have a minus two oxidation state; the four oxygen atoms therefore have a total charge of -8, and the three lead atoms must have a nominal oxidation state of + 8/3 to balance them. This variation from the normal rule that oxidation states must have whole number values arises because in Pb3O4, two-thirds of the lead atoms have an oxidation state of +2 and the remaining one-third of the lead atoms have an oxidation state of +4, thereby providing a total of +8 electric charges from three lead ions.
