The oxidation states of nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen would be -I, +I and -II respectively.

Often the terms oxidation number and oxidation state are used interchangeably. However the formal definition of oxidation number ligands are removed from the central atom (irrespective of electronegativity) with ALL bonding electrons. So in H2NOH choosing N as the central atom the oxidation numbers of nitrogen would be +III, H and OH would be -I. (This convention is usually applied to complexes where treating H as a hydride ligand is reasonable)

What is the oxidation numbers of F2(OH)2?

The OH moiety has a 1- charge, so with two of them you have a -2 charge. This makes the oxidation number of F 1+ since two of them will then combine with the 2 OH^-. Further, within the OH moiety, the O has an oxidation number of 2- and the H has an oxidation number of 1+.

What is the oxidation number of hydrogen in the compound NH3?

The assumed oxidation number of nitrogen in ammonia (3+) in this question, is wrongly signed:The correct oxidation number if nitrogen in NITRIDES (like in ammonia NH3, ammonium NH4+ and amino groups -NH2) is minus 3, so hydrogen has oxidation value of plus 1(one, like in H+) which is in fact the only possible form when attached to nonmetals.


What determines the oxidation number?

The oxidation number determines how much an element is oxidated, so the oxidation number of...1. elements is always 0.2. of simple ions is always the charge, e.g. in Cu2+ the oxidation number of copper is +2.3. hydrogen is usually +1, oxygen usually -2, alkali metals +1, etc.In molecules without a charge, the sum of the oxidation numbers has to be 0. This way you can calculate the oxidation number of its compounds. For example in KMnO4, the oxidation number of oxygen is -2, of K is +1, so if the sum is zero then the oxidation number of Mn has to be +7.In complex ions (OH-, MnO4-, ...) the sum of the oxidation numbers has to be the charge of the ion. (so in OH- and MnO4- it's -1).
