The oxidation number (formal charge) on oxygen can be 0, -1/2, -1 or -2. The formal charge on oxygen in a peroxide is -1. Elemental oxygen exists as O2 or O3. The formal charge on all elements is 0. The formal charges on oxygen in an oxide and superoxide, respectively, are -2 and -1/2.
The oxidation number of each oxygen atom in peroxide is -1.
In a peroxide compound, such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), oxygen has an oxidation number of -1. This is because the overall charge of the peroxide ion is -2, and since there are two oxygen atoms, each must have an oxidation number of -1 to balance the charge.
Peroxide iion is a anion. O shows the -1 oxidation number.
The oxidation number of oxygen in K2O2 is -1. Each oxygen atom in peroxide (O2^2-) has an oxidation number of -1.
The oxidation number of oxygen in compounds is typically -2, unless it's a peroxide where it is -1. In KO3, the oxidation number of potassium is +1, so for the compound to be neutral, the oxidation number of oxygen would have to be -2.

The oxidation number of oxygen in K2O2 is -1. Each oxygen atom in peroxide (O2^2-) has an oxidation number of -1.
The oxidation number of any free element is 0. So if it is oxygen by itself (e.g., O2) then the oxidation number/state is 0. In its compounds the oxidation number of oxygen is -2. This rule only stands if it isn't a peroxide such as H2O2 or Na2O2, in peroxide cases, the oxygen is -1.
The oxidation number of oxygen in compounds is typically -2, unless it's a peroxide where it is -1. In KO3, the oxidation number of potassium is +1, so for the compound to be neutral, the oxidation number of oxygen would have to be -2.
The oxidation number for H is +1, and the oxidation number for O is -1.
The oxidation number of oxygen in hydroxide (OH-) is -2 since oxygen typically has an oxidation number of -2 in compounds. The oxidation number of hydrogen in hydroxide is +1 since hydrogen usually has an oxidation number of +1 when bonded to nonmetals like oxygen.
Hydrogen it depends on the other element if it is part of a compound
Hydrogen peroxide may be represented as H2O2 or HO-OH, with contrast to normal oxides the oxidation number of oxygen in peroxide is -1.
+1 for each Na -1 for oxygen (as it is peroxide)
6. This is because it is a peroxide, with a structure Cr(O)(O2)2, where the nominal ligands are O2- (-2 ox.number in oxides) and O22- (-1 ox.number in peroxides) which gives the Cr an oxidation number of +6. It is sometimes called Chromium(VI) oxide peroxide.
