basic example or two where knowing the oxidation states helps produce a meaningful prediction.
It doesn't seem that "oxidation state" actually encodes any particular configuration change inside the atom that tends to be preserved across reactions. Or does it somehow require effort (energy?) to change an atom from one oxidation state to another? In which case, what actually changes?
