MCQ
The oxidation number and the electronic configuration of sulphur in ${H_2}S{O_4}$ is
  • A
    $+ 4$ ;$1{s^2}2{s^2}2{p^6}3{s^2}$
  • B
    $+ 2$ ; $1{s^2}2{s^2}2{p^6}3{s^2}3{p^2}$
  • C
    $+ 3$ ; $1{s^2}2{s^2}2{p^6}3{s^2}3{p^1}$
  • $+ 6$ ; $1{s^2}2{s^2}2{p^6}$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$+ 6$ ; $1{s^2}2{s^2}2{p^6}$
(d) ${H_2}\mathop {S{O_4}}\limits^{ * \,\,\,\,\,\,} $

$2 \times ( + 1) + x + 4 \times ( - 2) = 0$

$ + 2 + x - 8 = 0$; $x = 8 - 2 = + 6$

Electronic configuration of sulphur in ${H_2}S{O_4}$ is

$1{s^2},\,\,2{s^2},\,\,2{p^6}$.
