Vedclass · Answer

(A) The chemical formula for thiosulfuric acid is $H_2S_2O_3$. In this structure,one oxygen atom of sulfuric acid $(H_2SO_4)$ is replaced by a sulfur atom. The central sulfur atom is bonded to two hydroxyl groups $(-OH)$,one double-bonded oxygen $(=O)$,and one double-bonded sulfur $(=S)$. Thus,the structure is $HO-S(=O)(=S)-OH$.
