Chapter 16, Problem 8E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

To complete the blank given in the statement “For a neutral molecule, the oxidation states of the individual atoms must add up to _____.”

Concept introduction:

Oxidation states or the oxidation number is a + or – value that is given to the element in order to represent the number of electrons lost or gained when undergoing a chemical combination. In case of loss of electrons, the oxidation number is positive. In case of gain of electrons, the oxidation number is negative.
