What is the name of OF2? The correct answer is oxygen difluoride.
Substances which can oxidize molecular Oxygen(O2) are =Fluorine(F2) - It will oxidize Oxygen to +2 oxidation state:F2 + O2 ----> OF2 (Oxygen difluoride)Platinum(VI) Fluoride - It will oxidize Oxygen to +1/2 Oxidation state:O2 + PtF6 ----> O2PtF6 (Dioxygenyl Hexafluoroplatinate)
+2. F is always -1
Formula: O2F2
OF2
Oxygen difluoride
Oxygen is the element whose most common oxidation state is -2. In fact, it only shows oxidation states of +2,+1 in compounds OF2, O2F2. It is because oxygen is the second most electronegative element behind Fluorine.
Oxygen fluoride is a bent molecule.
No, OF2 is covalent
