Match the underlined atoms in column I and oxidation number in column II
| Column I | Column II |
| (a) MnO4- | (p) 1 |
| (b) CrO42- | (q) 2 |
| (c) Fe[FeII(CN)6]- | (r) 3 |
| (d) ZnO22- | (s) 6 |
| (e)[Ag(CN)2]- | (t) 7 |
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
MnO4- = x + 4(-2) = -1
x - 8 = -1
x = -1 + 8 = 7
CrO42- = x + 4(-2) = -2
x - 8 = -2
x = -2 + 8 = 6
Fe[FeII(CN)6]- = x + 2 + 6(-1) = -1
x + 2 - 6 = -1
x - 4 = -1
x = -1 + 4 = 3
ZnO22- = x + 2(-2) = -2
x - 4 = -2
x = -2 + 4 = 2
[Ag(CN)2]- = x + 2(-1) = -1
x - 2 = -1
x = -1 + 2 = 1
