What is the valency of oxygen in suboxides?

The valency of oxygen in suboxides can vary, but it is typically less than its usual valency of 2 in oxides. Suboxides contain oxygen atoms with a valency of 1 or less, resulting in a lower overall valency for oxygen in these compounds.


What is Oxidation state of oxygen in HOF?

The oxidation state of oxygen in HOF (hypofluorous acid) is +1. Oxygen typically has an oxidation state of -2 in compounds, but in this case, since fluorine is more electronegative, oxygen has an oxidation state of +1 to balance the charge of the molecule.


What is oxygen physical state at room temperature?

the physical state of oxygen at room temperature is GAS! - Joslyn ;*


What is oxidation state of oxygen in alkaline earth metal oxides?

The oxidation state of oxygen in alkaline earth metal oxides is -2. Alkaline earth metals always have a +2 oxidation state, which means oxygen has to have a -2 oxidation state to balance the charges in the compound.


What is energized oxygen?

Energized oxygen is known as oxygen in an excited state (high energy). ... Excited state is when any atom/molecule (oxygen in this case) is not on ground state (most stable state). all atoms want to be on ground state because it is the most stable. In order to energize/ excite oxygen, energy has to be put in (for example, by the absorption of a photon of an appropriate energy). After excitation, all atoms want to return to ground state so they release the energy by emitting a specific energy. Excited oxygen is sometimes referred to singles oxygen while ground state oxygen is referred to as triplet oxygen, this is best explained by Molecular orbital theory.
