Question

In the conversion of $$B{r_2}$$  to $$BrO_3^ - ,$$  the oxidation state of $$Br$$  changes from

A. +1 to +5
B. 0 to -3
C. +2 to +5
D. 0 to +5  
Answer :   0 to +5
Solution :
$$B{r_2} \to BrO_3^ - $$
For $$B{r_2},$$  oxidation number = 0
For $$BrO_3^ - ,$$  oxidation number, $$x + \left( { - 6} \right) = - 1 \Rightarrow x = + 5$$
