Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following elements is known for forming a stable +4 oxidation state? (2023)
  • Step 1: Understand what oxidation states are. Oxidation states indicate the charge of an atom in a compound.
  • Step 2: Identify the elements that can have a +4 oxidation state. This means they can lose four electrons.
  • Step 3: Look at the periodic table and find elements that commonly have a +4 oxidation state.
  • Step 4: Recognize that Tin (Sn) is one of those elements that can form a stable +4 oxidation state.
  • Step 5: Confirm that Tin (Sn) is the correct answer to the question.
