Each O is 2- for a total of 6-. Then there is a 2- overall net charge, meaning the S must be 4+.
S = +4 oxidation state O = -2 oxidation state
The oxidation state of sulfur in a thiosulfate ion is + 2.
Sulphar has +4 oxidation state.Oxygen has -2 oxidation state.
The oxidation state of S in HgS is -2. Since Hg is +2, to make a neutral charge S must be -2.
+2
Oxidation state of O is -2.Oxidation state of S is +4.
S = +4 oxidation state O = -2 oxidation state
The oxidation state of sulfur in a thiosulfate ion is + 2.
+6 oxidation state
The oxidation state of sulfur in a thiosulfate ion is + 2.
Sulphar has +4 oxidation state.Oxygen has -2 oxidation state.
In HSO4- sulfur's oxidation state is +5.
+6 oxidation state
In HSO4- sulfur's oxidation state is +5.
The oxidation state of S in HgS is -2. Since Hg is +2, to make a neutral charge S must be -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.
