This is a Long answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

We can calculate the oxidation states by - ]

NaClO₄ Oxidation no. of chlorine = +7

Suppose oxidation number of chlorine is x then, 1 + x + 4 * (−2) = 0

∴ x - 7 = 0

x = +7

We can calculate, the oxidation states, as given below-

NaClO
