Question
Question: Oxidation number of iodine in \(IO_{3}^{-},IO_{4}^{-},\) KI and \(I_{2}\) respectively is....
Oxidation number of iodine in IO3−,IO4−, KI and I2 respectively is.
A
−2,−5−1,0
B
+5,+7,−1,0
C
+2,+5,+1,0
D
−1,+1,0,+1
Answer
+5,+7,−1,0
Explanation
Solution
: IO3−→x+3(−2)=−1⇒x=+5
IO3−→x+4(−2)=−1⇒x=+7
KI→+1+x=0⇒x=−1
I2→0⇒x=0
