Oxygen forms multiple bonds and fluorine forms single bond.

Vedclass · Answer

(D) Oxygen is capable of forming $ppi-dpi$ multiple bonds with transition metals,which stabilizes the higher oxidation states of the metal. Fluorine can only form single bonds and is limited by steric hindrance around the central metal atom. Thus,$Mn$ can achieve a higher oxidation state $(+7)$ with oxygen than with fluorine $(+4)$.

The highest Mn fluoride is $MnF_4$ whereas the highest oxide is $Mn_2O_7$,because . . . . . . .
