Noel G. Benavides, PhD] [Oxidation Number Rules:] 1. The oxidation number of any pure element is 0. 2. The oxidation number of a monatomic ion equals that charge on the ion. 3. The more electronegative element in a binary compound is assigned the number equal to the charge it would have if it were an ion. 4. The oxidation number of fluorine in a compound is always -1. 5. Oxygen has an oxidation number of -2 unless it is combined with F, in which it is +1 or +2, or it is in peroxide (such as H~2~O~2~ or Na~2~O~2~), in which it is -1. 6. Hydrogen is +1, unless combined with a metal, and then it is -1. 7. In compounds, Group 1 is +1, Group 2 is +2, and Aluminum is +3. 8. The sum of the oxidation numbers of all atoms in a neutral compound is 0. 9. The sum of the oxidation numbers in a polyatomic ion equals the charge of the ion. **Part A:** In the following questions, give the oxidation number of the indicated atoms/ion: +-----------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | 1\.
