Can an element have more than one oxidation number?

Of course they can have.Many elements have several oxidation numbers.


Can a element have more than one oxidation number?

Yes, an element can have multiple oxidation numbers. The oxidation number of an element can vary depending on the compound it is in and its chemical environment. For example, the oxidation number of iron can be +2 or +3 in different compounds.


Oxidation numbers for five common transition elements?

Transition elements usually have more than one oxidation number. In different oxidation numbers, the ions show different colors. Some of the ranges: Cu from +1 to +2; Cr from +2 to +6; Ni from +2 to +3; Co from +2 to +3 and Mn from +2 to +7.


Is a3 plus b3 plus c3 always greater than a plus b plus c?

If the digits "3" in the question are intended to be superscripts, the answer is no. The sum of the cubes will be less than the sum of the base numbers if all the base numbers are less than 1 and sometimes will be less in other circumstances.


What is the common oxidation numbers of fermium?

The most common oxidation numbers of fermium, Fm, are +2 and +3, though there are no stable isotopes (half-life times shorter than 100 days)


Why are there no oxidation numbers over 3 plus?

Oxidation numbers higher than +3 are not common because most elements reach a stable electron configuration by either losing or gaining electrons to achieve a full outer shell. Higher oxidation states typically involve the participation of d or f orbitals, which are energetically unfavorable except for transition metals or lanthanides/actinides.


Do all elements in a group have the same oxidation numbers?

There is at least one oxidation number shared by all the elements in a periodic table column, but some of the elements may have more than one oxidation number and some of these additional oxidation numbers may not be possible for all the elements in a column.


What is the oxidation number og hydrogen when in a compound other than a hydride?

1+ is the normal oxidation number for hydrogen


How can you predict oxidation numbers?

The more electronegative elements attract electrons from other elements. A Lewis structure is an easy method to determine oxidation numbers. As a simple example let's take H--Cl. The electrons are slightly attracted to chlorine than hydrogen. That means the chlorine atom 'tries to steal' one extra electron, hence oxidation number is -1. Hydrogen tries to 'give away' one electron, hence +1 oxidation number.


What is the oxidation number of CBr4?

The oxidation number of carbon in CBr4 is +4 because bromine is more electronegative than carbon and is assigned an oxidation number of -1 each. Since there are four bromine atoms in CBr4, the total oxidation number of bromine is -4. The sum of the oxidation numbers in a compound must equal zero, so the carbon must have an oxidation number of +4 to balance the negative oxidation numbers from the bromine atoms.

Explain why 71113 plus 13 and 7654321 plus 5 are composite numbers?

71113 + 13 = 71126 7654321 + 5 = 7654326 Both can be divided by numbers other than 1 and itself. Hence both are composite.
