Sulfite
Sulfite ion
The sulfate ion is SO42 -. The oxidation state of the sulfur is +6 (work it out!); therefore, the ion is more properly named the sulfate(VI) ion. The sulfite ion is SO32-. The oxidation state of the sulfur is +4.
No. "Sulfa" is used to describe a type of drug molecules containing the sulfonamide moiety (SO2N). Sulfites are compounds with the polyatomic ion SO32-.
The sulphide (or sulfide) ion is similar to a sulfur atom except for 2 additional electrons, so its formula is S2-. In older references you might find this formula written S-2 or S--.
The name for SO32 is sulfite ion.

The sulfite ion is SO32- It is not to be confused with sulfate, SO42-
The sulfate ion is SO42 -. The oxidation state of the sulfur is +6 (work it out!); therefore, the ion is more properly named the sulfate(VI) ion. The sulfite ion is SO32-. The oxidation state of the sulfur is +4.
it is S2- ,while sulphite ion is SO32-
The ionic compound ZnSO3 is made up of the zinc ion (Zn2+) and the sulfite ion (SO32-). The formula for zinc sulfite is ZnSO3.
There are 32 valence electrons in the Lewis structure of the sulfate ion (SO3^2-), which consists of one sulfur atom and three oxygen atoms. Sulfur contributes 6 valence electrons, and each oxygen contributes 6 valence electrons, totaling 32 valence electrons in total.
Sulfite anion is the chemical name for SO32-
The oxidation number of sulfur in SO32 is +4. This is because oxygen always has an oxidation number of -2, so the sum of the oxidation numbers in the compound must equal the charge of the ion, which is -2 for SO32.
HSO3- is a stronger base than SO32- because it can accept a proton (H+) more readily. The presence of the H+ ion in HSO3- makes it more capable of accepting another proton compared to SO32-.
