Write the redox reaction between fluorine and water.
(N/A) $F_2$ is a strong oxidizing agent. It oxidizes $H_2O$ to either $O_2$ or $O_3$.
$2F_{2(g)} + 2H_2O(l) \rightarrow O_{2(g)} + 4H^+(aq) + 4F^-(aq)$
$3F_{2(g)} + 3H_2O(l) \rightarrow O_{3(g)} + 6H^+(aq) + 6F^-(aq)$
$2F_{2(g)} + 2H_2O(l) \rightarrow O_{2(g)} + 4H^+(aq) + 4F^-(aq)$
$3F_{2(g)} + 3H_2O(l) \rightarrow O_{3(g)} + 6H^+(aq) + 6F^-(aq)$
