The highest oxidation state in plutonium (At.no.=94) is


A) +6

B) +4

C) +5

D) +7

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

The highest oxidation state in plutonium (Atomic number=94) is +7. It can show a greater range of oxidation states which (in part) is attributed to the fact that 5f, 6d and 7s levels are of comparable energies. Plutonium (Pu)  can show oxidation state of +3,+4, +5,+6 and +7 in its compound
