Oxidation number of sulphur in Na(2)S(2)...

Oxidation number of sulphur in `Na_(2)S_(2)O_(3)` is

A

`+1`

B

`+2`

C

`+3`

D

`-3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Suppose the oxidation number of sulphur in `Na_(2)S_(2)O_(3)` is x.
`:. 2(+1)+x+3(-2)=0`
`2+2x-6=0`
`2x-4=0`
