The oxidation number of carbon is zero in

The valancy of carbons is generally 4 , but its oxidation state may be -4, -2, 0, +2, -1 , etc. In the compounds containing C, H , and O , the oxidation number of C is calculated as Oxidation number of C= (2n_(O)-n_(H))/(n_(C )) Where n_(O), n_(H) and n_(C ) are the numbers of oxygen, hydrogen, and carbons, atoms, respectively. In which of the following compounds is the oxidation state of carbon is zero?
