Statement
1
Elements
Oxidation number of an element is ALWAYS zero (0).
2
Compounds
The sum of the oxidation numbers of the atoms in a compound
is ALWAYS zero (0).
3
Monatomic
Ions
Oxidation number of a monatomic ion is ALWAYS equal to the
charge on the ion.
4
Polyatomic Ions The sum of the oxidations numbers of the atoms in a
polyatomic ion equals the charge on the ion.
5
Oxygen
The oxidation number of oxygen is -2 when it is in a compound
or a polyatomic ion.
6
Hydrogen
The oxidation number of hydrogen is +1 when it is in a
compound or a polyatomic ion.
7
Halogens
The oxidation number of halogen atoms is -1 when found in a
compound or polyatomic ion unless it is combined with
oxygen.
Oxidation Numbers
Assign oxidation numbers to Carbon in each of the
following compounds:
1. Carbon Monoxide
2. Carbon Dioxide
3. C6H12O6
4. Sodium Bicarbonate

Current:

The unit of current, the ampere (A), is defined
as one coulomb per second:
1A=1C/s
Charge = current  time
Q= I  t
Current and Charge



Faraday’s constant: F = 96,485 C/mol
Use charge, Faraday’s Constant, and #
moles of electrons to determine mass of
metal plated on object.
In a copper plating experiment in which copper
metal is deposited from copper(II) ion solution,
the system is run for 2.6 hours at a current of
12.0 A. What mass of copper is deposited?
