Do coefficients affect oxidation numbers? Thank you.

No coefficients do not affect oxidation numbers, it only affects the amount of electrons you have in the reaction

They don’t affect the oxidation numbers, but it affects the charge of the molecule and thus, the number of electrons needed to balance the charges on both sides

So that means oxidation number is extensive or intensive? Or would it be neither
