Statement I Central atom of peroxy disulphuric acid is sp3 hybridised. |
Statement II This is due to the presence of peroxy linkage (-O-O-) is peroxy disulphuric agent. |
A) Both Statement I and Statement II are true and the Statement II is the correct explanation of the Statement I
B) Both Statement I and Statement II are true but the Statement II is not the correct explanation of the Statement I
C) Statement I is true but Statement II is false
D) Both Statement I and Statement II are false
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
This problem contain conceptual mixing of structure of peroxydisulphuric acid and hybridisation. The hybridisation of S in \[{{H}_{2}}{{S}_{2}}{{O}_{8}}\]is sp3 hybridised hence structure around S is sp3 hybridised. This structure can be described for \[{{H}_{2}}{{S}_{2}}{{O}_{8}}\] is only due to presence of (-O-O-) peroxy bond.You need to login to perform this action.
