Question

The valency of $S$ in Sulphuric acid $\left(H_{2}S{O}_4\right)$ is:

• A. 2
• B. 8
• C. 4
• D. 6

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

The lewis dot structure of Sulphuric acid $\left(H_{2}S{O}_4\right)$ is:
$S$ forms $6$ covalent bonds with its neighbouring oxygen atoms and hence the valency of $S$ is $6$.
