The Correct Option is A

Approach Solution - 1

The task is to match oxoacids of sulphur in List-I with their corresponding bond structures in List-II. We will analyze each oxoacid and bond description to find matches. 

 List-I (Oxoacids of Sulphur) List-II (Bonds)
APeroxodisulphuric acidITwo S–OH, Four S=O, One S–O–S
BSulphuric acidIITwo S–OH, One S=O
CPyrosulphuric acidIIITwo S–OH, Four S=O, One S–O–O–S
DSulphurous acidIVTwo S–OH, Two S=O

Let's match them:

  • Peroxodisulphuric acid (A): This acid has two S–OH groups, four S=O bonds, and one S–O–O–S linkage. This matches description III.
  • Sulphuric acid (B): This well-known strong acid is characterized by two S–OH groups and two S=O bonds, matching description IV.
  • Pyrosulphuric acid (C): Also known as oleum, it has two S–OH groups, four S=O bonds, and one S–O–S linkage, consistent with description I.
  • Sulphurous acid (D): Contains two S–OH groups and one S=O bond, corresponding to description II.

Therefore, the correct option is:

  • A–III, B–IV, C–I, D–II

P-Block Elements

  • P block elements are those in which the last electron enters any of the three p-orbitals of their respective shells. Since a p-subshell has three degenerate p-orbitals each of which can accommodate two electrons, therefore in all there are six groups of p-block elements.
  • P block elements are shiny and usually a good conductor of electricity and heat as they have a tendency to lose an electron. You will find some amazing properties of elements in a P-block element like gallium. It’s a metal that can melt in the palm of your hand. Silicon is also one of the most important metalloids of the p-block group as it is an important component of glass.

P block elements consist of:
