Cerium can be bi-, tri- or tetravalent.
Never. iron shows either +2 or +3 oxidation state but in Fe3O4 its oxidation state is seems to +4 but it is actually mixture of one moles FeO and one mole Fe2O3 , (FeO.Fe2O3 = Fe3O4).
Manganese
O = -2 oxidation state H = +1 oxidation state
S = +4 oxidation state O = -2 oxidation state
The oxidation state is +3.
Cerium is known to exist in the +3 and +4 oxidation states. In its +4 oxidation state, cerium is relatively stable due to its half-filled f-orbital, which provides additional stability. This makes cerium a unique element as most lanthanides almost exclusively exhibit a +3 oxidation state.

Cerium
The Cerium ion can hold a charge of +2, +3 and +4. The +2 state is rare can only seen with elements H2, I2, and S. Often seen in the form of Cerium(IV) oxide.
Promethium has similar chemical properties as cerium; the oxidation state is 3+.
Cerium typically forms ionic bonds rather than covalent bonds. In its compounds, cerium usually forms the +3 oxidation state, where it loses three electrons to form ionic bonds with other elements.
0 in the elemental form, +3 and +4 are more common in its compounds.
Scandium has a higher oxidation state than calcium. Scandium typically exhibits a +3 oxidation state, while calcium usually shows a +2 oxidation state.
Cerium is a solid at room temperature and pressure.
In N2O (dinitrogen monoxide or nitrous oxide), the oxidation state of nitrogen (N) is +1 and the oxidation state of oxygen (O) is -2. This is because oxygen typically has an oxidation state of -2 in compounds, and the overall molecule is neutral (zero charge) which means the sum of the oxidation states must equal zero.
In Na2SO4, the oxidation state of sodium (Na) is +1, the oxidation state of sulfur (S) is +6, and the oxidation state of oxygen (O) is -2. To calculate the oxidation state of the whole compound, you can use the rule that the sum of the oxidation states in a neutral compound is zero, so in this case it would be +1*2 + (-2)*4 = 0.
Never. iron shows either +2 or +3 oxidation state but in Fe3O4 its oxidation state is seems to +4 but it is actually mixture of one moles FeO and one mole Fe2O3 , (FeO.Fe2O3 = Fe3O4).
