Table 1153. Oxidation states (oxidation number, degree of oxidation) of elements in periodic table.

Element
Most (predominant) stable states
Other states
1 H    
2 He    
3 Li Li+  
4 Be Be2+  
Free Be2+ ion cannot exist  
Its compounds are either covalent or contain solvated ions  
Be shows properties extremely different from the other elements in Group 2
5 B B3+  
Non-metallic element due to its considerably high first, second and third ionization energies, though with some metallic characteristics
6 C C4+ C4- in hydrocarbons
Typical non-metal  
   
7 N   N3+, N5+, N3- in NH3
Typical non-metal  
8 O   O2+ in OF2
Non-metal  
9 F    
The most reactive element in the Periodic Table  
10 Ne    
11 Na Na+  
12 Mg Mg2+  
Its compounds are either covalent or contain solvated ions  
13 Al Al3+  
Metallic element, it is very similar to Be  
14 Si Si4+  
   
15 P P5+ P3- e.g. in Na3P, P3+
16 S S6+  
Non-metal  
17 Cl Cl- Cl+, Cl3+, Cl5+, Cl7+
18 Ar    
19 K K+  
20 Ca Ca2+  
Its compounds are either covalent or contain solvated ions
