MCQ
Fluorine does not form positive oxidation states because
- ✓It is most electronegative element
- BIt forms only anions in ionic compounds
- CIt cannot form multiple bonding
- DIt shows non-bonded electron pair repulsion due to small size
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
It is most electronegative element
a
Fluorine is the most electronegative element so it cannot show positive oxidation state.
