Solution
The correct option is B Fluorine
Possible oxidation states of the elements are :-Hydrogen = −1,+1Fluorine = −1Carbon = −4,−3,−2,−1,0,+1,+2,+3,+4Oxygen = −2,−1,0,+1,+2Here, only fluorine shows a single oxidation state in all of its compounds.
Possible oxidation states of the elements are :-
Hydrogen = −1,+1
Fluorine = −1
Carbon = −4,−3,−2,−1,0,+1,+2,+3,+4
Oxygen = −2,−1,0,+1,+2
Here, only fluorine shows a single oxidation state in all of its compounds.
