Q7 / 125 · BITSAT 2021 · Chemistry
Identify the incorrect statement:
- Correct answerAThe $S-S-S$ bond angles in the $S_{8}$ and $S_{6}$ rings are the same.
- BRhombic and monoclinic sulphur have $\mathrm{S}_{8}$ molecules.
- C$\mathrm{S}_{2}$ is paramagnetic like oxygen
- D$\mathrm{S}_{8}$ ring has a crown shape.
Solution
The $\mathrm{S}_{6}$ molecule has a chair-form hexagon ring with the approx same bond length as that in $\mathrm{S}_{8}$, but with some what smaller bond angles i.e. bond lengths are approx same but bond angles are different.


Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
