Calculate the oxidation number ofC in CH_2 Cl_2

Answer»

Solution :C in `CH_2 Cl_2`, Let the oxidation number of C in `CH_2 Cl_2` be X. Writing the oxidation number of each ATOM above its symbol.
`overset (x) (C)overset(+1)(H)_2overset(-1)(CL)_2`(`because` number of H is +1 and that of Cl is -1)
`x+2(+1) +2 (-1)=0`. So x=0.
