Explanation
Given:
The oxidation state of sulfur in SO_3 is:
These values define the system as per NCERT data.
Formula:
In SO_3, O is -2, so 3(-2) + S = 0, S = +6, as sulfur shares electrons with three oxygen atoms..
This is standard NCERT relation.
Substitution & Calculation:
Substituting values and simplifying step by step as per NCERT method.
