Valency and oxidation number are different for an element. Valency of carbon is generally

4

, however, the oxidation state may be

- 4, - 2, 0, + 2, - 1

, etc. In the compounds containing carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, the oxidation number of carbon can be calculated as: Oxidation number of carbon

= \frac{2 n_{O} - n_{H}}{n_{C}}

n_{H}, n_{O}

n_{C}

are number of respective atoms.
