An example is the ferric ion: Fe(III) or Fe3+.
The oxidation number of Li in Li3N is +1, as it is a Group 1 element. The nitrogen (N) in Li3N has an oxidation number of -3.
With element X having oxidation numbers +3 and +5, compounds can form with element Z having oxidation numbers -2 and -3. Some possible compounds could be XZ2 (oxidation numbers cancel out) and XZ3 (oxidation numbers cancel out).
In KMnO4, Mn has an oxidation number of +7, KNO2 has N with an oxidation number of +3, and H2SO4 has S with an oxidation number of +6. In MnSO4, Mn has an oxidation number of +2, H2O has O with an oxidation number of -2, KNO3 has N with an oxidation number of +5, and K2SO4 has S with an oxidation number of +6.
The oxidation number of hydrogen in NH3 is +1, and the oxidation number of nitrogen is -3. This is because hydrogen typically has an oxidation number of +1 and in compounds, nitrogen usually has an oxidation number of -3.
Phosphorous, or P, has a zero oxidation number in the element. Common oxidation numbers are:- It has a -3 in phosphides, where it forms the P3- ion It has a +3 in oxidation number in for example P4O6, and PCl3 It has a +5 oxidation number in for example P4O10 and PCl5

There are 3 elements. This is meta phosphoric acid.
Each of the hydrogen atoms in H2 has an oxidation number of 0.
X(3+) and Z(2-) will give X2Z3. X(3+) and Z(3-) will give XZ. X(5+) and Z(2-) will give X2Z5. X(5+) and Z(3-) will give X3Z5.
The oxidation number for boron is typically +3. Boron is an element that tends to lose three electrons when forming compounds.
