Oxidation Number of each oxygen atom is -2; Now methyl carbon has three hydrogens so (3*1=3), so oxidation number of methyl carbon is -3 as to nullify the overall charge. 2. The oxidation number of carbon bearing alcohol group can be determined as follows. Oxygen in alcohol has -2 oxidation number but as hydrogen is attached with it (-OH group
6. The sum of the oxidation numbers in a polyatomic ion is equal to the charge on that ion. Again, work backwards to determine the oxidation number of any non-oxygen or non-hydrogen atom. To determine the oxidation number of Cr in Cr 2 O 72- : Oxygen will be -2 (Rule 4), for a total of: -2 × 7 = -14.
Cr(H 2O)3 + 6 − ⇀ ↽ − Cr(H 2O) 5(OH)2 + + H + (aq) However, if you write it like this, remember that the hydrogen ion isn't just falling off the complex ion. It is being pulled off by a water molecule in the solution. Whenever you write "H +(aq) " what you really mean is a hydroxonium ion, H 3 O +.
