The correct Answer is:
To determine which compound has the maximum oxidation state, we will analyze the oxidation states of chromium (Cr), manganese (Mn), and chlorine (Cl) in the given compounds: CrO2, Cl2, and MnO4^-. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze CrO2**: - Let the oxidation state of Cr be \( x \). - The oxidation state of oxygen (O) is \(-2\). - The compound is neutral, so we can set up the equation: \[ x + 2(-2) = 0 \] - Simplifying gives: \[ x - 4 = 0 \implies x = +4 \] 2. **Analyze Cl2**: - In elemental form, the oxidation state of Cl in Cl2 is \( 0 \). 3. **Analyze MnO4^-**: - Let the oxidation state of Mn be \( x \). - The oxidation state of oxygen is \(-2\) and there are 4 oxygens, so: \[ x + 4(-2) = -1 \] - Simplifying gives: \[ x - 8 = -1 \implies x = +7 \] 4. **Compare the oxidation states**: - From the calculations: - Cr in CrO2: +4 - Cl in Cl2: 0 - Mn in MnO4^-: +7 5. **Conclusion**: - The maximum oxidation state among the given compounds is +7, which is present in MnO4^-. ### Final Answer: The maximum oxidation state is present in **MnO4^-**.
