Question:

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) ZnO22- (r) 7
(d) [Ag(CN)2]- (s) 6

 

Options:

(a)-(p), (b)-(s), (c)-(q), (d)-(r)

(a)-(r), (b)-(q), (c)-(s), (d)-(p)

(a)-(s), (b)-(r), (c)-(q), (d)-(p)

(a)-(r), (b)-(s), (c)-(q), (d)-(p)

Correct Answer:

(a)-(r), (b)-(s), (c)-(q), (d)-(p)

Explanation:

MnO4

x + 4(-2) = -1

x - 8 = -1

x = -1 + 8 = 7

CrO42- 

x + 4(-2) = -2

x - 8 = -2

x = -2 = 8 = +6

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
