Q. Sulphur and the rest of the elements of group 16 are less electronegative than oxygen. Therefore, their atoms cannot accept electrons easily. They can acquire the

configuration by sharing two electrons with the atoms of the other elements and thus, exhibit a

oxidation state in their compounds. In addition to this, their atoms have vacant
