A

`HCHO`

B

`CH_(2)Cl_(2)`

C

`CrO_(5)`

D

`C_(12)H_(22)O_(11)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B, C, D

`CH_(2)O:x+2-2=0impliesx=0`, Oxidation state of `C=0`.
b. `CH_(2)Cl_(2):x+2-2=0impliesx=0`.
Oxidation state of `C=0`
c. `C_(6)H_(12)O_(6):6x+12-12=0impliesx=0`
Oxidation state of `C=0`
`C_(12)H_(22)O_(11):12x+22-22=0impliesx=0`
Oxidation state of `C=0`
