Oxidation #0
|
Elementary substances such as Cl in Cl2, Oxygen in O2, and Barium in Ba
|
|
Oxidation # 1
|
Group 1A atoms, such as NaCl. Also, Hydrogen as in the element itself and when it is compounded with a nonmetallic element
|
|
Oxidation #2
|
Group IIA Atoms, such as BaCl2
|
|
Oxidation # -1
|
Fluorine in all compounds, and also for chlorine bromine, and iodine when there is only one other element compounded with it, such as NaCl and MgI2
|
|
Oxidation # -1
|
This oxidation number is also included in Oxygen compounds that are peroxides and superperoxides, such as H2O2 and Na2O2 (Same base numbers)
|
|
Oxidation # -1
|
Hydrogen in a hydride compound, such as NaH, also have the oxidation number of -1. Due to Na being a metallic elements, the compound it makes with Hydrogen is metallic, making it a hydride.
|
|
Oxidation # -2
|
Oxygen in a compound, such as Al203 and Mg0, has an oxidation number of -2. The exception is when it is a peroxide or a super peroxide
|
|
If you have a compound, what are the sums of the oxidation numbers of the atoms in the compound?
|
Zero
|
|
If you have a polyatomic ion, what do the oxidation numbers of the atoms add up to?
|
The charge on the ion.
