    Oxidation number of \[Fe\] in \[F{{e}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\] is

    A) \[\frac{1}{2}\]                                   

    B) \[\frac{2}{6}\]

    C) \[\frac{8}{3}\]                                   

    D)  \[\frac{3}{2}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let the oxidation number of \[Fe\] in \[F{{e}_{3}}{{O}_{4}}\] is\[x\]. Hence,                  \[3x+4(-2)=0\]                                   \[3x+(-8)=0\]                                              \[3x=8\]                                                 \[x=\frac{8}{3}\]
