Expert Solution
Step 1: Explanation

Oxidation number of oxygen in most of its compounds = -2 

Oxidation number of H with non-metal = +1 

Sum of the oxidation number of atoms of each elements in a compound is equal to the charge on the compound. If there is no charge on compound then put the sum equal to zero.
