A) All halogens form oxy acid
B) Only chlorine and bromine form oxy acid
C) All halogens except fluorine form oxy acid
D) Only iodine form oxy acid
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Key Idea: Only the elements having lesser electronegativity than oxygen conform oxy acid. \[\because \] Fluorine has higher electronegativity than oxygen. \[\therefore \] Fluorine does not form oxyacid and rest of the halogens form oxyacid with oxygen. (\[\because \] of lower electronegativity than oxygen.)
