The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the correct statements about chemical bonding, we will analyze each statement step by step based on the information provided in the video transcript. ### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Analyze HSO5⁻ Ion Structure**: - The HSO5⁻ ion consists of one sulfur (S) atom and five oxygen (O) atoms. - Sulfur has 6 valence electrons. - The structure includes one hydroxyl group (OH) and one negatively charged oxygen (O⁻). - The statement claims that there is an SOH linkage; however, the structure indicates that there is a CS double bond with OH instead. - **Conclusion**: This statement is **incorrect**. 2. **Borax and P4O10 Linkages**: - Borax (Na2B4O7) has boron (B) and oxygen (O) linkages. - The structure shows that there are 5 B-O-B linkages. - For P4O10, the structure indicates there are 6 P-O-P linkages. - The statement claims that the number of B-O-B linkages in borax equals the number of P-O-P linkages in P4O10, which is not true. - **Conclusion**: This statement is **incorrect**. 3. **Hybridization and Oxidation States of Sulfur in H2SO5**: - The hybridization of sulfur can be determined by counting the sigma bonds and lone pairs. - For the first sulfur, there are 4 sigma bonds and no lone pairs, leading to sp³ hybridization. - The oxidation states are calculated as follows: - For one sulfur: +5 (due to the presence of -2 from two oxygens and +1 from OH). - For the other sulfur: +3 (due to -2 from one oxygen and -1 from OH). - The statement claims both sulfur atoms have the same hybridization but different oxidation states, which is true. - **Conclusion**: This statement is **correct**. 4. **Tetrapolyphosphoric Acid Linkages**: - The structure of tetrapolyphosphoric acid (H4P4O13) indicates that it has 3 P-O-P linkages, not 4. - The statement also claims there are no P-P linkages, which is true. - Therefore, the statement that tetrapolyphosphoric acid has 4 P-O-P linkages and no P-P linkages is incorrect. - **Conclusion**: This statement is **incorrect**. ### Final Answer The only correct statement is about the hybridization and oxidation states of sulfur in H2SO5. Thus, the correct option is **C**.
