Oxidation number of reactive main-group elements

Figure 4.10 Highest and lowest oxidation numbers of reactive main-group elements. The A-group number shows the highest possibie oxidation number (O.N.) for a main-group element. (Two important exceptions are O, which never has an O.N. of -1-6, and F, which never has an O.N. of -l-7.) For non-metals (yellow) and metalloids (green), the A-group number minus 8 gives the lowest possible oxidation number.
