MCQ
When iodine reacts with sodium thiosulphate, the oxidation state of sulphur changes from +4 to __________ .
  • A
    -2
  • B
    +2
  • C
    $+\frac{3}{2}$
  • D
    $+\frac{5}{2}$

Answer

D. $+\frac{5}{2}$
Explanation:
$I_2+2 \stackrel{+4}{S_2} O_{3(a q)}^{2-} \rightarrow \stackrel{+\frac{5}{S^2}}{S_4} O_{6(a q)}^{2-}+2 I_{(a q)}^{-}$
S has fractional oxidation state in the product.
