Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the oxidation number of carbon (C) in the given compounds, we will follow a systematic approach for each compound. The oxidation number of an element in a compound can be calculated using the known oxidation states of other elements in the compound. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **For CO (Carbon Monoxide)**: - Let the oxidation number of C be \( x \). - Oxygen (O) has an oxidation number of \(-2\). - The overall charge of CO is 0. ...
