We need to keep in mind that the compound is neutral.

H2SO3
2(+1)+S+3(-2)=0 (since its neutral)
2+S-6=0
S-4=0
S=4

Therefore the oxidation number for sulfur is +4.

Which of the following atoms would gain two electrons to fill its valence energy level?
Harlamova29_29 [7]

The atom that would gain two electrons to fill its valence energy level is S(sulfur)

This is because s (sulfur) is in atomic number 16 with 2.8.6 of [Ne] 3s^2 2p^4 electronic configuration. This implies that sulfur has 6 valence electron and therefore it require two electron to fill its valence energy level and obtain 18 rule electrons.
