Water is thermally more stable than H2S H2S is better reducing agent than water. Bond angle in water is greater than in H2S. SO2 will act both as oxidizing and reducing agent while SO3 will act only as oxidizing agent and H2S will act only as reducing agent. Sulphuric acid is highly viscous and has high B.P. conc.

When few drops of FeCl3 is added to hypo a violet colour appears which disappears quickly. KMnO4 should not be dissolved in conc. H2SO4 SF6 is known but SCl6 is not known. The tendency to show 2 oxidation state diminishes from sulphur to polonium SO2 acts as a bleaching agent. H2S cannot be dried over conc.H2SO4 Conc.H2SO4 is a good dehydrating agent. Oxygen is paramagnetic while ozone is diamagnetic. Ozone layer acts as an umbrella for the earth against the harmful radiations from sun.

Violet colouration obtained by mixing S-2 and sodium nitroprusside is due to the formation of ____ species. 4. State whether the following statements are TRUE or FALSE. Oxygen molecule is paramagnetic. Sulphur shows maximum covalency four. Ozone can be easily detected by mercury. The conversion of oxygen to ozone is exothermic process. Contact process produces 98% H2SO4 Both sulphurous and sulphuric acids are dibasic in nature. SO2 does not help in combustion but burning magnesium continues burning in its atmosphere. SO2 is an acid anhydride sulphurous acid. If hydrogen sulphide is bubbled through an acidified solution of potassium dichromate the solution turns yellow with bright green precipitate. H2SO4 is used in lead accumulators. Bleaching action of SO2 is due to reduction and temporary. The maximum volatility amongst hydrides of VI group elements is for H2S. Potassium iodide is not oxidized by ozone in the presence of ferrous sulphate. All electrons in O2 molecule are paired. Mercury in presence of ozone is oxidized to mercuric oxide. Peroxy disulphuric acid molecule consists of S-S bond. Low volatility and viscous nature of conc. H2SO4 is due to hydrogen bonding. Sulphur does not form basic oxides. Liquid SO2 is a good solvent. O3 is a pale blue gas. Sulphur is used as medicine for skin disease. Oxide ion is not easily polarized, so it is called a hard ion. Ozone is not poisionous in nature. Ozone molecule is linear. Sulphurous acid is a white crystalline solid. The S-O bond in SO2 is smaller than the expected value. Solid SO2 exists in three polmorphic forms. In alkaline medium the reducing properties of sulphurous acid is due to SO3-2 while in acidic medium it is due to SO2 Redox potential of SO4-2 ions in acid medium. (SO42- + 4H+ + 2e- SO2 + 2H2O) is smaller than in the alkaline medium. (SO42- + H2O + 2e- SO32- + 2OH-) Mg reduces H2SO4 to H2S. Sodium thiosulphate is an oxidizing agent.
