Option A is correct answer.
According to octet rule, atoms have tendency to lose, gain and share electrons to complete its octet i.e. eight valence electrons are surrounded to the atom.
Since, sulphur contains six valence electrons and two chlorine atoms are present in the reaction having seven valence electrons. Thus, to complete their octet, chlorine shares a pair of electrons with the sulphur atom.
It means it is an ion. It has lost two protons making it a positive ion.
If you are given the
standard potential for the reduction of X^2+ is +0.51 V, and the standard
potential for the reduction of A^2+ is -0.33, just add the two. The standard
potential for an electrochemical cell with the cell is 0.18V
