    In which of the following pairs of oxidation states of sulphur and chromium are same?

    A)  \[S{{O}_{2}},Cr{{O}_{4}}^{-2}\]

    B)                         \[S{{O}_{2}},Cr{{O}_{7}}^{-2}\]

    C)                         \[S{{O}_{3}},Cr{{O}_{4}}^{-2}\] 

    D)                         \[S{{O}_{3}}^{-2},Cr{{O}_{4}}^{-2}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Oxidation number of S in \[S{{O}_{3}}\] \[x+(3\times -2)=0\]                 \[x=6\] The oxidation number of \[Cr\] in \[Cr{{O}_{4}}^{2-}\]                 \[x+(4\times -2)=-2\]                                 \[x=8-2=6\]
