Which has maximum number of oxo groups?
Options
- AH 2 S O 4
- BH 2 S O 3
- CH 3 P O 3
- DH 3 P O 4
Correct answer
A. H 2 S O 4
Step-by-step solution
Here H 2 S O 4 has maximum number of oxo groups that is two. M = O bonds are called oxo bonds in inorganic compounds. H 2 S O 4 has two S = O bonds; whereas H 2 S O 3 has one S = O bond, H 3 P O 3 has one P = O and H 3 P O 4 also has one P = O bond.
