Which oxoacid of chlorine exibits +4 , +6 oxidation state?
1 Answer
Subham Patel
We have 4 oxoacids of chlorine -
1) hypochlorous acid ( HoCl)
= This have oxidation state of +1
2) Chlorous acid (HClO2)
H - O - Cl=O is the structure
Thus oxidation state is = 1-1+x-2=0
X=2
3)chloric acid (HClO3)
H - O - Cl =O
O ( here two double bond with cl and O present)
Oxidation state is 1-1+X -2-2=0
X=4
4) perchloric acid ( Hclo4)
O
H- O - Cl =O . ( Here cl and O form three = bond)
O
Oxidation state is 1-1+X -2-2-2=O
X=6
Thus , HClO3 and HclO4 have oxidation state 4 and 6 respectively....
Thank u
