Which of the following statement(s) is/are INCORRECT?

Options:(select one or more)

Answer:
B, C
Solution:

The incorrect statements are B and C.

Statement B is incorrect because perchloric acid (HClO₄) does not have a peroxy linkage (O-O). The oxidation state of chlorine is indeed +7.

Statement C is incorrect because in thiosulfuric acid (H₂S₂O₃), the two sulfur atoms have different oxidation states (one is 0, the other is +4).
