Q14 / 155 · WBJEE 2016 · Chemistry

The acid in which $\mathrm{O}-\mathrm{O}$ bonding is present is

  • A
    $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{S}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{3}$
  • B
    $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{S}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{6}$
  • Correct answer
    C
    $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{S}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{8}$
  • D
    $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{S}_{4} \mathrm{O}_{6}$

Solution

$\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{S}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{8}$ shows $-\mathrm{O}-\mathrm{O}-$ (peroxy) bonding as follows: Figure

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