Question
Consider the elements:
Cs, Ne, I and F
Identify the element which exhibits neither the negative nor does the positive oxidation state.
✓

Answer

Ne. It is an inert gas (with high ionization enthalpy and high positive electron gain enthalpy) and hence it neither exhibits -ve nor +ve oxidation states.
