What is the maximum nad minimum oxidation states for Na Mg AI Sn and Mn?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The minimum oxidation state for all metals is 0 the maximum oxidatin state for s and p block elements is equal to the numbre of electrons present inn the valence shell thus maximum oxidation state of Na=+1 that of Mg is +2 that of AI is +3 and that of k `ll` Sn is +4
However for d block elemtys the maximum oxidation state is equal to hte sum of (n-1) d and ns electons thus maximum oxidation state of Mn`(3d^(5) 4s^(2))=5+2=+7`
