The sum of oxidation numbers of both the nitrogen atoms in nh4no3
Originally Answered: What is the oxidation number of nitrogen in NH4NO3? One of the two has a number of -3 (in the NH4 + ammonium cation - each H is +1), whilst the one in the NO3 - nitrate anion has one of +5 (each O atom is -2). The net total for the oxidation state foe the compound has to be zero.
