a. KCLO3
b. Cl2
c. Ca(ClO4)2
d. Cl2O

Answered by maham237 @



The oxidation number of Cl may vary in each compound. In a, this is a neutral compound which means the overall charge is zero. oxygen has a total of -6, k has +1, so Cl has to be +5. Cl in b has a zero charge. In c, oxygen has -16, Ca has +2 and Cl has to be +7. In d, oxygen has -2 so Cl is +1.
