Please look at #177...choice A says H2SO4, so the oxidation # is +6. Choice D is also +6. Destroyer solution says choice A is H2SO3...so the correct choice should be A and D. Right?

There is no error in destroyer in H2SO3 the oxidation state of S is +4 and in Na2SO4 the oxidation state of S +6. The destroyer has the answer as D not A. U probably have the older edition, which was fixed. So the correct answer is D. Good Luck on the Exam!!!!!
