Question
A compound contains X, Y and Z atoms. The oxidation states of X are +a, Y is −b and Z is −c. The molecular formula of the compound is XmYnZr. Therefore, among the given relations, which one is correct?
Options
A.am + bn + cr = 0
B.am + bn = cr
C.am + cr = bn
D.bn + cr = am
Solution
$m \times ( + a) + n \times ( - b) + r \times ( - c) = 0 \Rightarrow ma = bn + cr$
