What does the sum of oxidation numbers need to equal for a charged compound?

the largest oxidation number

the smallest oxidation number

zero

the charge on the compound

The charge on the compound

Explanation:

The charge on the compound signifies that the compound is not in its neutral state.

Therefore, the oxidation state would be equal to the charge on the compound.

it is to be noted that an alpha particle is an helium nucleus. so it contains 2 protons 2 neutrons and has a mass number of 4. when alpha decay particles are ejected from the nucleus it gets transformed into an atom which has atomic number less than 2 and a mass number less than 4.

an equation that could represent alpha decay is radium 226 decay of alpha particle forms radon 222.
