You must remember that oxidation number of hydrogen in acids is always +1, oxidation number of oxygen in oxides & acids is always -2... metals has always oxidation number on plus!
group NO3 comes from HNO3...and oxidation number of whole acid group is always on minus and equal to the amount of hydrogen atoms in this acid... so oxidation number of NO3 = -1
we have 2 NO3 groups so 2*(-1) = -2 and that is the reason why oxidation number of Fe in this formula must be +2... because sum of all elements always gives 0!
Now we could count of oxidation number for nitrogen... we write HNO3 and start counting from right to left:
3*(-2) from oxygens + 1 from hydrogen = -5
so nitrogen must have +5 oxidation number... because sum all in formula must be 0.
I believe the answer is <span>can be elements or compounds
In this case, elements in the decomposition reaction is the substance that cannot be separated into simpler substances.
Compounds, technically act as a reactant in the decomposition reaction, but since the reaction breakdown one substance into two or more, sometimes it exists in the product.</span>
The total number of elements that one particular element can bond to can be determined by simply drawing the Lewis structure of the element.
Place the chemical symbol
Then look at the group number = valence electrons
Distribute the valence electrons around the atom.
C = 4 bonds
N = 3 bonds
O = 2 bonds
