Question

What is the O.N. of Sin (a) H2s​

Answer 1

Explanation:

oxidation no of sulpur is -2 in H2s

Answer 2

Oxidation number of S in H₂S = -2

Let oxidation number of sulphur be 'X'

The most electronegative atom is written in the right side, so, it will gain electron, which means that sulphur is more electronegative than hydrogen

The overall charge of the compound is 0

+2 + x = 0

x = -2

The positive charge is on hydrogen, and in order for the atom to be neutral, the other charge must be negative
