Question
Which of the following are peroxoacids of sulphur?
Options
\[\ce{H2SO5 and H2S2O8}\]
\[\ce{H2SO5 and H2S2O7}\]
\[\ce{H2S2O7 and H2S2O8}\]
\[\ce{H2S2O6 and H2S2O7}\]

Solution
\[\ce{H2SO5 and H2S2O8}\]
Explanation:
Peroxy linkage refers to the presence of a bond between oxygen and oxygen (O – O) in a molecule.
Only \[\ce{H2SO5 and H2S2O7}\] of the sulphur oxoacids above have a peroxy linkage.
