Question

At room temperature, the reaction between water and fluorine produces
(A) \(\mathrm{HF}\) and \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{2}\)
(B) \(\mathrm{HF}, \mathrm{O}_{2}\) and \(\mathrm{F}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{2}\)
(C) \(\mathrm{F}^{-}, \mathrm{O}_{2}\) and \(\mathrm{H}^{+}\)
(D) HOF and HF

Answer 1

Ans: (C)
 \(\quad \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(\ell)+\mathrm{F}_{2}(\mathrm{~g}) \rightarrow \mathrm{HF}\) (aq.) \(+\mathrm{O}_{2} \rightarrow \mathrm{H}^{+}\)(aq.) \(+\mathrm{F}^{-}\)(aq.) \(+\mathrm{O}_{2}\)
