+5
+5 for P
+5 for phosphorus and -2 for oxygen
No, Phosphorus has different oxidation states in both two ions. In Phosphides, oxidation state is -3, while oxidation state is +5 in Phosphates
zero oxidation number
The oxidation number of what in K3PO4? In that compound the oxidation number of oxygen is -2, the oxidation number of potassium is +1, and the oxidation number of phosphorus is +5.Realistically, in most compounds you can generally take it as a given that the oxidation number of oxygen is -2 and the oxidation number of any alkali metal is +1. In potassium phosphate, that only leaves the oxidation number of phosphorus to figure out, and since they have to come out to a total of zero ...The oxidation number of a compound is essentially a meaningless phrase.

The oxidation number of chromium varies from +2 to +6.
The oxidation number of phosphorus is +4.
In H2PO4-, oxygen has the formal oxidation number -2, phosphorus has the formal oxidation number +5, and hydrogen has the formal oxidation number +1. The formal oxidation numbers for oxygen in almost all oxyanions and for hydrogen in almost all acid anions have these values, so that the remaining element can be assigned a formal oxidation number by the requirement of satisfying the total electrical charge if any shown in the formula.
