Question

( I ) Fluorine exhibits only -1 oxidation state
( II ) Fluorine is called super halogen

Easy

A

I and II both are true
B

I is true and II is false
C

I is false and II is true
D

I and II are false

Solution

It contains seven electrons in the valence shell ,hence it requires one electron to complete itâs octet .Thus by gaining one electron it shows -1 oxidation state
Fluorine is the most reactive of all the halogens. It combines directly with other elements except oxygen and some of the noble gases. Hence fluorine is called super halogen element.
