The correct Answer is:
To determine in which of the given compounds the oxidation state of sulfur (S) is other than +6, we will analyze the oxidation states of sulfur in each compound provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Compounds**: The compounds given are: - A) Karose acid (H2SO5) - B) Marshall's acid (H2S2O8) - C) Oleum (H2S2O7) - D) Sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O3) 2. **Calculate Oxidation State of Sulfur in Each Compound**: - **A) Karose acid (H2SO5)**: - The formula is H2SO5. - Hydrogen (H) has an oxidation state of +1 (2 H = +2). - Oxygen (O) has an oxidation state of -2 (5 O = -10). - Let the oxidation state of sulfur be x. - The equation becomes: \[ 2 + x - 10 = 0 \implies x = +8 \] - Thus, the oxidation state of sulfur in Karose acid is +6. - **B) Marshall's acid (H2S2O8)**: - The formula is H2S2O8. - 2 H = +2, 8 O = -16. - Let the oxidation state of sulfur be x. - The equation becomes: \[ 2 + 2x - 16 = 0 \implies 2x = 14 \implies x = +7 \] - Thus, the oxidation state of sulfur in Marshall's acid is +6. - **C) Oleum (H2S2O7)**: - The formula is H2S2O7. - 2 H = +2, 7 O = -14. - Let the oxidation state of sulfur be x. - The equation becomes: \[ 2 + 2x - 14 = 0 \implies 2x = 12 \implies x = +6 \] - Thus, the oxidation state of sulfur in Oleum is +6. - **D) Sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O3)**: - The formula is Na2S2O3. - 2 Na = +2, 3 O = -6. - Let the oxidation state of sulfur be x for one sulfur and y for the other sulfur. - The equation becomes: \[ 2 + x + y - 6 = 0 \] - In sodium thiosulfate, one sulfur is in the +6 oxidation state and the other is in the -2 oxidation state. - Therefore, we can assign: \[ x = +6 \text{ and } y = -2 \] 3. **Conclusion**: - In sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O3), one sulfur has an oxidation state of +6 and the other has -2. Therefore, the oxidation state of sulfur in sodium thiosulfate is other than +6. ### Final Answer: The compound in which the oxidation state of sulfur is other than +6 is **D) Sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O3)**.

To determine in which of the given compounds the oxidation state of sulfur (S) is other than +6, we will analyze the oxidation states of sulfur in each compound provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Compounds**: The compounds given are: - A) Karose acid (H2SO5) - B) Marshall's acid (H2S2O8) - C) Oleum (H2S2O7) ...
