Answer:
a. C: +3 ; b. N: +5 ; c. S:+6 ; d. C: +4; e. Mn: +7 ; f. Cr: +6.
Explanation:
Global charges in molecules is 0
You sum all the oxidation states to determine the oxidation state for the compound.
Na₂C₂O₄ → Sodium oxalate → Global charge: 0
Oxidation state for C: +3
HNO₃ → Nitric acid → Global charge: 0
Oxidation state for N: +5
H₂SO₄ → Sulfuric acid → Global charge: 0
Oxidation state for S: +6
HCO₃⁻ → Bicarbonate → Global charge: -1, this is an anion
Oxidation state for C: +4
KMnO₄ → Potassium permanganate → Global charge: 0
Oxidation state for Mn: +7
Cr₂O₇⁻ → Anion dichromate → Global charge: -2
Oxidation state for Cr: +6
It should be the third one. "Science deals with facts, pseudoscience deals with theories"
