Given below are two statements :

Statement I : The covalency of oxygen is generally two but it can exceed upto four. The oxidation state of oxygen in $\mathrm{SO}_2$ is -2 and in $\mathrm{OF}_2$ it is +2 .

Statement II : The anomalous behaviour of oxygen when compared to the other elements of group 16 is due to its small size and high electronegativity.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below

A

Both Statement I and Statement II are true

B

Both Statement I and Statement II are false

C

Statement I is true but Statement II is false

D
