This was no help at all... thanks.

@LPFAN1919 Perhaps if you could tell me WHY it was no help and EXACTLY what you need help with. Your comment was too vague to be of any use to me. Tell me what you need and I might be able to make changes.

Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you! You make sense!

How do you write the redox reaction for the decomposition of ammonium nitrate?

NH4NO3=>2N2+O2+4H2O

thanks a bunch

How do you do it when u have a a a compund and an element? like... HNO3??? and looking for nitrogen oxidation?

WEWT!!! 98 on chem test thanks to you.

[sozinification]

thank you,you are an angel.

When a compound has an exponent of plus 2, does that mean that it is Missing two electrons and therefor is positive? or does it mean that it has gained two electrons?

THANK YOU!!

@LPFAN1919 dumb ass

@cutediva784 Br I N Cl H O F are diatomic molecules, which means these elements have to be paired up to each other to be stable. it's just a mnemonic device.
