<h3>What is the oxidation number of oxygen in H2O?</h3>
Oxygen almost always has an oxidation number of -2, except in peroxides (H 2 O 2) where it is -1 and in compounds with fluorine (OF 2) where it is +2. Hydrogen has an oxidation number of +1 when combined with non-metals, but it has an oxidation number of -1 when combined with metals.

Answer:
ans is (2) 2,4- hexadiene
This is a reduction half-reaction. Initially, gold exists as

, and after the reaction, it has been converted to elemental gold. To make this possible, three electrons must be added to <span>

. This fits within the definition of reduction reactions, where the reactant gains electrons in the reaction.</span>
