What? I don’t think anyone knows what that is
Answer:
Based on the Modern Periodic table, there is an increase in the electropositivity of the atom down the group as well as increases across a period. On comparing the electropositivities of the mentioned oxides central atom, it is seen that Ca is most electropositive followed by Al, Si, C, P, and S is the least electropositive.
With the decrease in the electropositivity, there is an increase in the acidity of the oxides. Thus, the increasing order of the oxides from the least acidic to the most acidic is:
CaO > Al2O3 > SiO2 > CO2 > P2O5 > SO3. Hence, CaO is the least acidic and SO3 is the most acidic.

Answer:- Ca = +2, S = +6 and O = -2
Solution:- There are certain rules for oxidation numbers. As per the rule, oxidation number of alkaline earth metals in their compounds is +2.
Oxidation number of oxygen in it's compounds is -2(except peroxides) and the sum of oxidation numbers of all the elements of a neutral compound is zero.
Since, Ca is +2 and O is -2, the oxidation number of S could easily be calculated for the given compound as:
Let's say the oxidation number of S in
is
. Let's make the algebraic equation and solve it.




Hence. the oxidation number of Ca is +2, O is -2 and S is +6.
Answer is: 0.330 ppm
