The oxidation states of S atoms in `S_(2)O_(6)^(2-)` from left to right respectively are
`{:(" O O"),(" || ||"),(bar(O)-S-S-S-S-bar(O)),(" || ||"),(" O O"):}`

A

`+6, 0, 0, +6`

B

`+3, +1, +1, +3`

C

`+5, 0, 0, +5`

D

`+4, +1, +1, +4`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Left S atom : +2 each from `=O+4`
`+1` from `- O^(-)" "+1`
0 from `-S" "0/(+5)`
