    A)  \[FeS\]               

    B)  \[Fe{{S}_{2}}\]

    C)  \[NaO-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  | \\  ONa \end{smallmatrix}}{\overset{\begin{smallmatrix}  O \\  || \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{S}}}\,=O\]               

    D)  \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  | \\  ONa \end{smallmatrix}}{\overset{\begin{smallmatrix}  O \\  || \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{S}}}\,-\overset{\begin{smallmatrix}  O \\  || \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{S}}\,-ONa\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    The oxidation number of sulphur is -l in\[Fe{{S}_{2}}\]as: \[+2+2x=0\] \[2x=-2\] \[x=-1\]
