Calculate the oxidattion numer of the atoms marked with (*)Compounds given below:
`overset**(C)H_(3)OH`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let the oxidation number of C in `CH_(3)` OH is -2
`thereforex+underset(("forH"))(4xx(+1))+underset(("forO"))(1xx(-2))=0thereforex=-2`
So ,the oxidation number of C in `CH_(3)`OH is -2
