Abstract
In this paper, the different ideas about the concept of the oxidation number in domestic chemistry textbooks have been discussed. Based on this, we propose to use the term of specified charge number instead of formal charge number and apparent charge number to describe the oxidation number. Through the interpretation of the definition of the oxidation number, we draw some important inferences and finally introduce our explorations and attempts on the contents of the oxidation number in compiling the inorganic chemistry textbook, and suggest introducing the valence-shell electron number method to determine the oxidation number of elements in inorganic chemistry and general chemistry textbooks.
期刊介绍:
University Chemistry is an educational research academic journal supervised by the Ministry of Education and co-sponsored by Peking University and the Chinese Chemical Society. It was founded in 1986 and changed to a monthly publication in January 2016. Its purpose is to promote and deepen the reform of university chemistry education and serve to improve the level of chemistry teaching in my country. The main columns are: Today's Chemistry, Teaching Research and Reform, Knowledge Introduction, Chemical Experiments, Teacher-Student Chats, Future Chemists, etc. The journal has been included in many databases such as China Journal Network Full-text Database, Wanfang Database, Taiwan Huayi Database, Chinese Science and Technology Journal Database (Full-text Edition), and American Chemical Abstracts.
