The correct Answer is:
To determine the total number of compounds having a +3 oxidation state of the underlined elements in the given compounds, we will analyze each compound one by one. ### Step 1: Analyze the first compound, \( K_4P_2O_7 \) 1. **Identify the oxidation states:** - Potassium (K) has an oxidation state of +1. - Oxygen (O) has an oxidation state of -2. - Let the oxidation state of phosphorus (P) be \( x \). 2. **Set up the equation for the neutral compound:** \[ 4(+1) + 2(x) + 7(-2) = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ 4 + 2x - 14 = 0 \] \[ 2x - 10 = 0 \] \[ 2x = 10 \implies x = 5 \] 3. **Conclusion for the first compound:** - The oxidation state of phosphorus in \( K_4P_2O_7 \) is +5, not +3. ### Step 2: Analyze the second compound, \( OF_2 \) 1. **Identify the oxidation states:** - Fluorine (F) has an oxidation state of -1. - Let the oxidation state of oxygen (O) be \( x \). 2. **Set up the equation for the neutral compound:** \[ x + 2(-1) = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ x - 2 = 0 \implies x = +2 \] 3. **Conclusion for the second compound:** - The oxidation state of oxygen in \( OF_2 \) is +2, not +3. ### Step 3: Analyze the third compound, \( NO_2^- \) 1. **Identify the oxidation states:** - Let the oxidation state of nitrogen (N) be \( x \). - Oxygen (O) has an oxidation state of -2. 2. **Set up the equation considering the charge:** \[ x + 2(-2) = -1 \] This simplifies to: \[ x - 4 = -1 \implies x = +3 \] 3. **Conclusion for the third compound:** - The oxidation state of nitrogen in \( NO_2^- \) is +3. ### Final Conclusion - Among the three compounds analyzed: - \( K_4P_2O_7 \): P is +5 - \( OF_2 \): O is +2 - \( NO_2^- \): N is +3 Thus, only **one compound** has an element in the +3 oxidation state, which is \( NO_2^- \). ### Total Number of Compounds with +3 Oxidation State: **1** ---
