Element
analysis and oxidation numbers
For each compound, and
where possible, a formal
oxidation number for each element is given, but
the usefulness of this number is limited, especially so
for p-block elements in particular. Based upon
that oxidation number, an electronic configuration is
also given but note that for more exotic compounds you
should view this as a guide only.
