$\huge{\boxed{\boxed{\mathfrak{\red{Answer}}}}}$

Answer 2

Answer:

2

Explanation:

• Molecules ->Na2O2

=>Number of different element = 2

• Element oxidation number
• Oxygen -1
• Sodium +1
• Since Na2O2 having not in ionic form and sodium atom is 2 and oxygen is 2 so

=>2x -2 = 0(where X is oxidation number of sodium )

=>2x = 2

=>X = 1

• Since Na2O2 is peroxide so in peroxide the oxidation number of oxygen is -1 .
