    What is the oxidation state of P in\[Ba{{({{H}_{2}}P{{O}_{2}})}_{2}}?\]

    A)  \[+1\]              

    B)  \[+2\]

    C)  \[+3\]              

    D)  \[-1\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Let oxidation state of P is x, then \[2(+1)+2[2(+1)+x+2(-2)]=0\] \[2+2(2+x-4)=0\] \[2+2x-4=0\] \[2x=2\] \[x=+1\]
