Vedclass · Answer

(B) The statement that the oxidation state of sulphur is never less than $+4$ is incorrect. Sulphur exhibits a wide range of oxidation states in its compounds,ranging from $-2$ (as in $H_2S$) to $+6$ (as in $H_2SO_4$).At high temperatures (around $1000 \ K$),$S_2$ is the dominant species and it is paramagnetic,similar to $O_2$.Rhombic sulphur is the most stable allotrope at room temperature and is readily soluble in $CS_2$.

List-$I$	List-$II$
$(a) \ [S_2 O_3]^{2-}$	$(I)$ Paramagnetic
$(b) \ H_2 O_2$	$(II)$ Toxic gas
$(c) \ H_2 S$	$(III)$ Strong reducing agent
$(d) \ S_2$	$(IV)$ Disproportionate in presence of $Mn^{2+}$
