A) \[C{{l}^{-}}\]
B) \[ClO_{4}^{-}\]
C) \[Cl{{O}^{-}}\]
D) \[MnO_{4}^{-}\]
E) \[NO_{3}^{-}\]
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
In all the given species except\[Cl{{O}^{-}},\]the central atoms are either in their minimum or maximum oxidation states and hence, they cannot further decrease or increase their oxidation states. In\[Cl{{O}^{-}},\] the oxidation state of\[Cl\]can be increased or decreased when it acts as oxidizing or reducing agents.Species | Oxidation state |
\[C{{l}^{-}}\] | \[-1\] |
\[ClO_{4}^{-}\] | \[+7\] |
\[Cl{{O}^{-}}\] | \[+1\] |
\[MnO_{4}^{-}\] | \[+7\] |
\[NO_{3}^{-}\] | \[+5\] |
