Q50mcq
Which of the following statements is not true for halogens?
a.
All but fluorine show positive oxidation states
Correct Answer
b.
All are oxidizing agents
c.
All form monobasic oxyacids
d.
Chlorine has the highest electron-gain enthalpy
Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
Fluorine does not show positive oxidation states; in HOF it has oxidation state +1 for oxygen’s sake? Actually the standard NCERT point is that fluorine shows only -1 oxidation state in its compounds and no positive oxidation state. Hence statement (a) is not true as written.
