Question

the oxidation state of lin H4lO6- is​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let oxidation state of I in H4IO6− is x.

Since the overall charge on the complex is −1, the sum of oxidation states of all elements in it should be equal to −1.

Therefore, 4+x−12=−1 (Here, oxidation state of H is +1 and oxygen is -2)

or, x=7
