In Chromyl chloride, the oxidation state of chromium is (+)...

In Chromyl chloride, the oxidation state of chromium is (+)\left(+\right) ___________.

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

The chemical formula of Chromyl chloride is CrO2Cl2{CrO}_{2}{Cl}_{2}. The oxidation state of chromium in chromyl chloride (CrO2Cl2{CrO}_{2}{Cl}_{2}) is +6+ 6.

Let the oxidation number of Chromium be “xx”, the oxidation state of oxygen is −2- 2, the oxidation state of chlorine is −1.- 1 .

Then,

x+2(−2)+2(−1)=0x + 2 ( - 2 ) + 2 ( - 1 ) = 0

x−6=0x=6x - 6 = 0x = 6
