What is the oxidation state of an individual sulfur atom in (SO3)2?
If you mean SO3^-2 (the sulfite anion), then S has an oxidation number of 4+, since each O atom is 2-. In sulfur trioxide, SO3, the S atom has an oxidation number of 6+.
Oxidation number for each element in SO3?
-2 for each O +6 for S
What is the oxidation number of the sulphur atom in SO3?
-2 for each O, +6 for S
What is the oxidation state for s in SO3?
+6 oxidation state
What are the oxidation numbers of SO3?
S is +6, O is -2

Oxidation number for each element in SO3?
-2 for each O +6 for S
What is the oxidation number of the sulphur atom in SO3?
-2 for each O, +6 for S
What is the oxidation state for s in SO3?
+6 oxidation state
What is the oxidation numbers of sulfur?
The oxidation number is 0 in elemental form. It can have other oxidation numbers as -2, +4 and +6 in its compounds such as H2S, SO2 and SO3 respectively.-2, 0, 2, 4 and 6 oxidation states
What is the oxidation state of each element in SO3 -2?
+4
What are the oxidation numbers of SO3?
S is +6, O is -2
What is the oxidation state for s in (SO3)2?
S has an oxidation state of +4 in a sulfite anion as stated. In oxyanions, oxygen always has an oxidation state of -2. Therefore, three oxygen atoms will have total oxidation number of -6, requiring an oxidation number of +4 for sulfur to sum to the charge of -2 on the anion as a whole.
What is the oxidation state for s in SO3-2?
S has an oxidation state of +4 in a sulfite anion as stated. In oxyanions, oxygen always has an oxidation state of -2. Therefore, three oxygen atoms will have total oxidation number of -6, requiring an oxidation number of +4 for sulfur to sum to the charge of -2 on the anion as a whole.
What does the symbol MgSO3 means?
Likely it is; Magnesium sulfite Mg(2+) and SO3(2-) but SO3 can also be sulfur trioxide which also has an oxidation number of 2- then; Magnesium trioxide would be the name, but this is much less likely
What is the valency of sulphur in SO3?
Things are complicated if we use the term valency. It is better to use the term Oxidation state or Oxidation Number. In SO2, the oxidation state of sulphur is +4 and In SO3, the oxidation state of sulphur is +6.
What is the oxidation state of an individual sulfur atom in SO32 and minus?
The oxidation state of an individual sulfur atom in (SO3)2- is 4.
