Where on the periodic table has a positive oxidation number?
Positive oxidation numbers are most common with the metals - groups 1 to 13. However there are many well known compounds where non-metals have positive oxidation numbers- for example NaClO4 where Cl has an oxidation number of +7
Does a metal or nonmetal have both positive and negative oxidation numbers?
A metal typically has only positive oxidation numbers, while a nonmetal can have both positive and negative oxidation numbers. Metals tend to lose electrons (positive oxidation numbers) to form cations, while nonmetals can gain or lose electrons to form a variety of oxidation states.
Can metals have positive and negative oxidation numbers?
Yes, metals can have positive oxidation numbers when they lose electrons to form cations. However, metals typically do not have negative oxidation numbers since they usually do not gain electrons to form anions.
What are the different oxidation states of a metal that exhibits multiple oxidation states?
Metals that exhibit multiple oxidation states can have different levels of positive charge, known as oxidation states. These can vary depending on the compound the metal is in. For example, iron can have oxidation states of 2 and 3.
For which atom is it difficult to predict the most probable ionic charge using the periodic table?
Transition metals are difficult to predict the most probable ionic charge using the periodic table because they can exhibit multiple oxidation states due to their partially filled d-orbitals. The transition metals are known for forming complex ions, and their variable oxidation states make predicting their charges challenging.
Do metals have both positive and negative oxidation numbers?
No, the can only have positive oxidation numbers

What are the oxidation numbers for all the metals of the periodic table?
See link below.
What is the oxidation number of non metals?
The oxidation number of non-metals can vary depending on the element and the compound it is in. Generally, non-metals tend to have negative oxidation numbers when they form compounds with metals, but they can also have positive oxidation numbers when they form compounds with other non-metals.
Do metal ions have a positive charge?
On their own metals have no charge. Metal ions have a positive charge.
How do you determine charge of element from periodic table?
elements in group Ia - IVa have an oxidation number equal to the positive number of the group.example oxidation of K = +1, K is in group 1. elements in group Va - VIIa have an oxidation number equal to the group number minus 8. for example oxidation of O is -2, group number 6a minus 8 equals -2. as for the rest of the elements in groups 1b to 8b i have no idea and am searching for the answer.
What charge do metals typically take on?
positive charge
Why do the elements on the left hand side of the periodic table have a positive charge?
They tend to have low electronegativity which means they donate their electrons in ionic compounds. They are metals and when they have one or more less electrons than protons they will have a positive charge.
