Question

acerage oxidation state of s atoms in h2s4o6

Answer 1

H2S4O6 is known as Tetrathionic acid and has unsymmetrical Sulphur atoms, therefore conventional method won’t work. Hence, analysis of structure is essential.
Since, electronegativity of Oxygen is more than that of Sulphur, therefore when bond would break, Oxygen will have -1 and Sulphur +1.

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

Explanation:

the number of bond where more is present we calculate them as more oxidation state
