(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Determine the oxidation number of Cr in CrO

Concept Introduction: The rules for assigning oxidation number to elements are:

  • For an element in its free state it is assigned an oxidation number of zero.
  • Monatomic ions have oxidation number that is equal to charge of the monatomic ion.
  • Alkali metals have +1 oxidation number, alkaline earth metals have +2 oxidation number and halogens are assigned -1 oxidation number.
  • In most compounds H is assigned a +1 oxidation number and O is assigned a -2 oxidation number.
  • For a neutral compound the summation of oxidation numbers of all elements in the compound is zero.

(b)
