Peroxide
Compound containing oxygen oxygen single bond or peroxide anion o2-, e.g. H2O2
Hydride
Compounds contain h- ion
Oxidation number of pure element
0
Oxidation number of simple ion
Equal to its charge
Sum of oxidation numbers =
0
Sum of oxidation states in Polyatomic ion =
Overall charge of ion
Metal hydrides oxidation numbers
Oxygen oxidation state in peroxide
-1
Halogen oxidation state
Usually -1 BUT as halages (bonded to o2) they have varied oxidation states
Halate ion charge
-1
(ClO-1)
exception to H oxidation number
in metal hydrides it is -1
what is a metal hydride
metal to hydrogen - NaH
oxidation number of Cl in NaClO2
+3
oxidation number of oxygen when bonded to F?
2+
