simply what do oxidation states show
how many electrons an atom has gained or lost
what is the oxidation rule for uncombinde elements
0
what is the oxidation number rule for simple ions
number is the charge on the ion
what is the rule of oxidation for a neutral compound
0
what is the oxidation number rule for complex ions (ions containing more than one ion)
sums to the total charge of the ion
what is hydrogens normal oxidation number and the exception to this rule
normally hydrogen= +1
hydrogen = -1 as a metal hydride
what is oxygens normal oxidation number and the exception to this rule
normally oxygen = -2
oxygen = -1 as a peroxide
what is fluorine’s normal oxidation number
-1
