What are the oxidation numbers of K Cl and O in kclo3?
What are the oxidation numbers of K Cl and O in kclo3? Answer: K = +1, Cl = +5, O = -2 (Choice B) What oxidation number does CL have? -1 Cl has a -1 oxidation number, except when bonded to a F or an O. What is the oxidation of Cl in KClO2? As an uncombined element, O2 has a oxidation number of 0. KClO2 and KCl are both ionic compounds. K in both compounds will have a charge of +1. That means Cl will be -1 in the KCl compound.
