Oxidation of Nitrogen in Ba(NO3) |
|
Answer» tion:Since there are TWO nitrate ions, that AMOUNTS to charge of -2. For overall neutrality, Barium should have the OXIDATION number of +2. We can do a similar CALCULATION for Nitrogen by putting the charge of Oxygen as -2. Then nitrogen is in the oxidation STATE of +5. |
