Question
Chapter 16, Problem 54E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The oxidation state of nitrogen in each of the given compound is to be calculated.
Concept Introduction:
The oxidation state of a substance is defined as the number of electrons lost or gained in a chemical compound. It can either be zero, positive or negative. An atom which gains electron has a negative oxidation state and atom which loses electronshas a positive oxidation state.
The oxidation state of an atom in an elemental state is zero.
The oxidation state of an ion is equal to the charge on the ion.
