Calculate the oxidattion numer of the atoms marked with (*)Compounds given below:
`Hoverset**(C)N`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let the oxidation number of C in HCN =x
`thereforeunderset(("forH"))(Ixx(+1))+x+underset(("forN"))(1xx(-3))=0thereforex=+2`
So, the oxidation number of C in HCN is +2 .
