  • The formation of the oxide ion O^(2-) (g) requires first an exothermic and then an endothermic step as shown below, O(g)+ e^(-) = O^(-)(g), DeltaH^(@)= -142kJmol^(-1) O^(-)(g) +e^(-) =O^(2-)(g), DeltaH^(@)= 844 kJmol^(-1) This is because : oxygen is more electronegative, oxygen has high electron affinity, O^(-) ion will tend to resist the addition of another electron , O^(-) ion has comparatively larger size than oxygen atom

    A
    oxygen is more electronegative
    B
    oxygen has high electron affinity
    C
    `O^(-)` ion will tend to resist the addition of another electron
    D
    ` O^(-)` ion has comparatively larger size than oxygen atom

    Valency and oxidation number are different for an element. Valency of carbon is generally 4, however, the oxidation state may be-4,-2,0, +2,-1, etc. In the compounds containing carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, the oxidation number of carbon can be calculated as, Oxidation number of carbon =(2n_o - n_H)/( n_c) where, n_(H), n_o and n_c are number of respective atoms. Which of the following oxides of carbon has fractional oxidation state?
