Chapter 17, Problem 4E
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The oxidation number for Au+3 is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The oxidation number is the positive or negative value assigned to an atom in a substance. The number of electrons lost or gained by the elements gives the value of oxidation number. The oxidation number of monoatomic ion is equal to its charge.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The oxidation number for Mn2+ is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The oxidation number is the positive or negative value assigned to an atom in a substance. The number of electrons lost or gained by the elements gives the value of oxidation number. The oxidation number of monoatomic ion is equal to its charge.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The oxidation number for P3 is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The oxidation number is the positive or negative value assigned to an atom in a substance. The number of electrons lost or gained by the elements gives the value of oxidation number. The oxidation number of monoatomic ion is equal to its charge.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

The oxidation number for O2 is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The oxidation number is the positive or negative value assigned to an atom in a substance. The number of electrons lost or gained by the elements gives the value of oxidation number. The oxidation number of monoatomic ion is equal to its charge.
