A CuO
B H2
C Cu
D H2O

2. Vera is studying oxidation states. She learns that the oxidation state of fluorine is always -1 in all its compounds. What is the oxidation state of fluorine in F2?

A 0
B -1
C +1
D -2

3. In corrosion, iron acts as:

A Cathode only

4. Vera is studying the rules for assigning oxidation states. She learns that the sum of oxidation states in a neutral compound is zero. In H2O, what is the sum of oxidation states?

A 0
B +1
C -1
D +2

5. Paula is studying the rules for assigning oxidation states. She learns that the oxidation state of oxygen is usually -2, except in peroxides where it is -1. In H2O2, what is the oxidation state of oxygen?
