Question

find oxidation state of all.atom h2so4
​

Answer 1

Answer:

In H2SO4 , hydrogen exists in its usual +1 state, and oxygen exists in its −2 state.

Let x be the oxidation number of sulfur in sulfuric acid. Then we got:

1⋅2+x−2⋅4=0.

2+x−8=0.

x−6=0.

x=6.

So, sulfur exists in the +6 state.
