Sodium ion- it has 1 valence electron so its easy for it to loose this electron. Thus, it forms sodium ion by loosing its valence elctron while reacting.It forms Na+. ... Oxide ion- it has 6 valence electrons so it gains 2 electrons lost by a metal atom and reacts with it.

Determine the oxidation number of sodium in Na202
Olegator [25]

Answer:

+1

Explanation:

Na₂O₂

NOTE: the oxidation number of oxygen is always –2 except in peroxides where it is –1.

Thus, we can obtain the oxidation number of sodium (Na) in Na₂O₂ as illustrated below:

Na₂O₂ = 0 (oxidation number of ground state compound is zero)

2Na + 2O = 0

O = –1

2Na + 2(–1) = 0

2Na – 2 = 0

Collect like terms

2Na = 0 + 2

2Na = 2

Divide both side by 2

Na = 2/2

Na = +1

Thus, the oxidation number of sodium (Na) in Na₂O₂ is +1
