How many atoms are in this formula?
NH4OH
Nitrogen:
Hydrogen:
Oxygen:

Sagot :

rohit26

Explanation:

In NH4OH, there are 5 hydrogen atoms having oxidation state +1( H can also have -1 oxidation state when it is bonded to more electropositive atom than H)

NH4OH contains one Oxygen atom having -2 oxidation state .

And also NH4OH have zero net charge

Let N has 'x' oxidation state

Hence,

x+5(+1)+(-2)=0

x+3=0

x= -3

Thus, Nitrogen have -3 oxidation state.
