Why has liquid Fluorine never been used as an oxidizer on a launch?

It's only stable at very low temperatures which can be difficult to maintain in launch situations

Why is fluorine oxidation state never positive?
An atom of fluorine has the greatest attraction among all atoms for electrons; therefore, no other atom can extract an electron from a fluorine atom, as would be required for the fluorine to have a positive oxidation state.
What element has the greatest electronegativity?
Fluorine... by far. Its so electronegative that it will never form double bonds, even if they would make sense by the octet rule. BF3 is a really good example of this
What are the properties of fluorine?
Fluorine is located in period 2 and group 17 in the periodic table. It is the known strongest non metal. It never gains a positive oxidation state. The corresponding acid, HF, is a weak acid. Fluorine reacts with almost all other elements and destroy many of the organic compounds forming carbon tetrafluoride and hydrogen fluoride.
Why does liquid bromine change to gas at room temperature?
Actually, Bromine is a Liquid at room temperature it never changes to a gas at room temperature when it is heated up to 300 or so...Kelvin.
Is an earthquake going to happen today?
The majority of the Earth is molten (liquid). The Earth never truly stops moving.

How can you know when rocket will launch in Pokemon ruby?
It never launches
Which element will never have a positive oxidation number?
Helium (He) is one such element. So is Argon (Ar). There are probably others as well.
Do tien and launch get married?
No, they didn't, they had a slight romantic relationship but Launch disappeared before anything could happen, Tien was never really interested anyway.

What battle did the south would never again be able to launch a major offensive?
Gettysburg
When will Google Plus end the field trial and launch for real?
Never. By invite forever.
When did the space shuttle Enterprise launch?
It never did. Enterprise was only used for atmospheric and aerodynamic tests in earths atmosphere and was never launched into space.
Do i need liquid gasket on aluminum valve covers?
no no no no no. never use liquid gasket
What is the element which never acts as reducing agent?
Fluorine is probably the answer wanted, but helium and possibly neon also fit the characterization.
Given that it has the highest electronegativity can a flouride atom ever form a nonpolar covalent bond?
A fluorine atom can never form a nonpolar covalent bond because if you were to use the electronegativeity chart and subtract the second highest number with Fluorine, you get numbers that range from 0.6 (polar covalent) to 3.3 (ionic).
How does space junk get in space?
Space junk is mainly old satellites that we never bothered to bring back to earth. In other words, we launch space junk to space, but it's not junk at launch. Get it?
