(a)
Interpretation:
Oxidation number of boron in
Concept Introduction:
Oxidation state of a species is the one that has a specified oxidation number. Increase in oxidation number corresponds to oxidation while decrease in oxidation number corresponds to reduction. Rules for assigning oxidation number for an element is given as follows;
- The oxidation number is zero for the element that is present in uncombined state.
- Sum of the oxidation number of the atoms that is present in it is equal to the charge on the species.
- Oxidation number of the element is the charge that is possessed when the more electronegative atom is imagined to be an ion.
(b)
