MCQ
Oxygen has an oxidation state of +2 in.
- AH2O2
- BOF2
- CSO2
- DH2O
✓
Answer
- OF2
Explanation:
Oxidation state of oxygen is always -2 except in peroxides,superoxides and when it reacts with fluorine.
In H2O2, oxidation state of H is +1, so oxidation state of oxygen is -1.
In OF2, oxidation state of F is -1, so oxidation state of oxygen is +2.
In SO2 and H2O, oxidation state of oxygen is -2.
