Oxygen has an oxidation state of +2 in. - Vidyadip

MCQ

Oxygen has an oxidation state of $+2$ in.

A
$\ce{H_2O_2}$
✓
$\ce{OF_2}$
C
$\ce{SO_2}$
D
$\ce{H_2O}$

✓

Answer

Correct option: B.

$\ce{OF_2}$

Oxidation state of oxygen is always $-2$ except in peroxides,superoxides and when it reacts with fluorine.
In $\ce{H_2O_2},$ oxidation state of $H$ is $+1,$ so oxidation state of oxygen is $-1.$
In $\ce{OF_2}$, oxidation state of $F$ is $-1,$ so oxidation state of oxygen is $+2.$
In $\ce{SO_2}$ and $\ce{H_2O}$, oxidation state of oxygen is $-2.$
