They are both strong oxidizing agents, or, in other words, strongly electronegative.
As fluorine is more electronegative than oxygen, fluorine acts as the electron acceptor in the compounds with oxygen. As fluorine becomes partially negative charged and positive for oxygen, they are called fluorides.
Oxygen forms the O2- oxide ion; fluorine the F- fluoride ion.
Even though Fluorine comes after Oxygen, it is smaller due to the fact that it has more protons. Therefore, the electrons in Fluorine have a tighter orbit than the electrons in Oxygen. Electrons dictate atomic size.
Fluorine is more chemically similar to chlorine than it is to oxygen. Fluorine and chlorine both have 7 valance electrons, whereas oxygen has 6.

As fluorine is more electronegative than oxygen, fluorine acts as the electron acceptor in the compounds with oxygen. As fluorine becomes partially negative charged and positive for oxygen, they are called fluorides.
Because fluorine has greater electronegativity than oxygen.
Yes it is more electro negative. F has the highest electro negativity
the Oxygen-Fluorine bond is polar, as the fluorine is more electronegative than the Oxygen, the Fluorine would be the negative side
Fluorine has the highest electronegativity among the three elements. Oxygen is the second most electronegative, while chlorine has a slightly lower electronegativity compared to both fluorine and oxygen.
fluorine reacts with water veryviciously the chemical equation for it is fluorine + oxygen = fluorine oxide
Oxygen forms the O2- oxide ion; fluorine the F- fluoride ion.
This element is fluorine.
Hydrogen and oxygen; hydrogen and fluorine; sodium and fluorine; and benzene and oxygen.
Oxygen has a lower electronegativity than fluorine (3.5 as compared to 4).
Fluorine+Water----Oxygen+Hydrogen Fluoride
when compared to oxygen, fluorine has greater electronegativity (greater attraction for shared pair of electrons).
