Calculate the oxidation number of sulphur, chromium and nitrogen in H2SO5,  and  Suggest structure of these compounds. Count for the fallacy.
Calculate the oxidation number of:
(i) Cr in dichromate ion
(ii)Â Mn in manganate ion
(iii)Â S in tetrathionate ion.
Compute the oxidation number of:
(i)Â Ni in |Ni(Fe(C2O4)3|
(ii)Â Fe in K3|Fe(C2O4)3|
(i) Let the oxidation number of Ni = x
Writing the oxidation number of each atom at the top of its symbol.Â
             x    0
             [Ni  (CO)4]
The algebraic sum of the oxidation number of various atoms = 0
         x + 4(0) = 0
             x = 0
(ii) Let the oxidation number of Fe = x
Writing the oxidation number of each atom at the top of its symbol,
            +1          x - 2
             K3        [Fe(C2O4)3]
The algebraic sum of the oxidation number of various atoms = 0
     3(+1) + x + 3(-2) = 0
         3 + x - 6 = 0
