What is the oxidation state of iodine in \(\mathrm{I}_2 \mathrm{Cl}_6\) ?
- A 7
- B -3
- C 3
- D -2
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) 3
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Let x be the oxidation state of I in \(\mathrm{I}_2 \mathrm{Cl}_6\).
\(\therefore2 x+6 \times(-1)=0\)
\(2 x-6=0\)
\(2 x=6\)
\(\therefore x=+3\)
\(\therefore2 x+6 \times(-1)=0\)
\(2 x-6=0\)
\(2 x=6\)
\(\therefore x=+3\)
