Oxidation Number

Molecular formula of hydrogen peroxide is .
The oxidation number of is , but it is in when combined with less electronegative elements.
Since oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen, therefore oxidation no. of hydrogen in will be .
Let the oxidation no. of oxygen in be .
As we know that, the sum of the oxidation numbers of all the atoms in a neutral compound is .



Hence, the oxidation no. of oxygen in hydrogen peroxide is .

In redox reaction, equivalent of reducing agent . equivalent of oxidising agent Hence equ. of reducing agent equ. of oxidising agent.
