Chem A Final Exam Review

In-class problem-solving

1. Determine the oxidation state of S in HSO3

-.Set your equation equal to -1 since this is

a -1 ion.Assign the most electronegative atom

first. In this problem it is O. O usually has an oxidation state of -2. Since there are 3, total = -6.

Assign H next. H usually has an oxidation state of +1.

S must be +4. (+1) + (+4) + (-6) = -1
