Oxidation number of pf3

3
3 is the oxidation state of phosphorus in PF3.
I assume you mean PF3. P is -1 each for a total of -3 which makes P +3.

oops. But I made a typo. I wrote this:
I assume you mean PF3. P is -1 each for a total of -3 which makes P +3. That isn't correct. I should have written:
F is -1 each for a total of -3 which makes P +3.
