but highest
oxidation state in oxides is +7 
because
(a) fluorine is more
electronegative than oxygen
(b) fluorine
does not possess d orbitals
(c) fluorine
stabilises lower oxidation state
(d) in covalent
compounds, fluorine can form single bond only while oxygen forms double bond
Answer:
(d) Highest
oxidation state of manganese in fluoride is +4 
but
highest oxidation state in oxides is +7
.
The reason is that in covalent compounds fluorine can form single bond while
oxygen forms double bond.
