18. Oxidation Numbers How to determine oxidation numbers
Record the following notes on page 6 of your foldable
How to determine oxidation numbers
Find the group number (roman numeral) for the element (located at the top of the group).
Determine if the element is a metal or a nonmetal.
If it is a metal, the roman numeral value from the group number is the positive value of the oxidation number.
Example: Hydrogen is in group IA; therefore the oxidation number is +1 and the cation is written H1+. OR
If it is a nonmetal, subtract the roman numeral value from eight. Assign a negative sign to the oxidation number.
Example: F is in group VIIA; 8 – 7 = 1; therefore the oxidation number is -1 and the anion is written F1-.

19. Question What is the oxidation number of Mg? 1+ 1- 2+ 2-
Answer: C; Mg is a metal in group IIA, therefore the oxidation number is 2+.

20. Question
According to the periodic table, which of these elements will form an ion with a –3 charge?
a. N
b. La
c. Li
d. Rb
Answer: A; Nitrogen is a nonmetal in group VA; 8 – 5 = 3; therefore the oxidation number is -3.
