MCQ
Metals exhibit $........$ oxidation states in their compounds.
- ✓Positive.
- BNegative.
- CNeutral.
- DNone of these.
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
Positive.
As metals have great tendency in donating electrons it will have positive oxidation states.
For example $\ce{Na}$ is metal has atomic number $11$
So electronic configuration is $2, 8, 1$
So after donating one electron its octet get completed and become stable and becomes $\ce{Na}^+$
