A
Oxygen fluorides form oxoacids.
💡 Explanation:

Oxygen florides forms $HF,O _2$ on hydrolysis.

$OF _2 + H _2O\rightarrow O _2 + 2 HF$

$2O _2F _2 + 2H2O\rightarrow O _2 + 4HF$

so oxygen florides do not form forms hypohalous acids.

So the given statement oxygen florides forms oxoacids is wrong.

Hence option C is correct.
