When the gases sulphur dioxide and hydrogen sulphide mix in the presence of water, the reaction SO_(2) + 2H_(2) S to 2H_(2) O + 3S Here hydrogen sulphide is acting as

In SF_4 the type of hybridization shown by S is

The difference in the oxidation states of the two types of sulphur atoms in Na_(2)S_(4)O_(6) is :

The difference in the oxidation numbers of the two types of sulphur atoms in Na_(2)S_(4)O_(6) is: Oxidation number of sulphur atom involved in coordinate bond formation is (+5) and that of middle sulphur atom is zero. Hence the difference in oxidation number of two types of sulphur aton will be (+5).]

Sulphur shows a large number of oxidation states in its compounds such as H_2S, SO_2, H_2SO_3,Na_2S_2O_3, H_2SO_4, H_2S_2O_7, H_2S_2O_4 and elemental S . In the reactions of sulphur compounds , the oxidation number of sulphur increases and decreases in different reactions and the compounds act as reducing and oxidising agents. (i) H_2S +HNO_3 rarr NO+S+H_2O (ii) 2Na_2S_2O_3+I_2rarr Na_2S_4O_6+2NaI (iii) H_2SO_4+2HBr rarr 2H_2O+Br_2+SO_2 (iv) S_8+12OH^(-) rarr 4S^(2-) +2S_2O_3^(2-) +6H_2O What type of reaction is reaction (iv) ?
