The correct option is A HCOOH
Let x be the oxidation state of carbon.
Since, the overall charge on the complex is 0, the sum of oxidation states of all elements in it should be equal to 0.
a. CH4:x+4=0→x=−4
b. CH3OH:x+4−2=0⇒x=−2
c. HCOOH:x+2−4=0⇒x=2
d. C6H12O6:6x+12−12=0⇒x=0
Hence, the oxidation state of carbon is highest in HCOOH.
