Choose the true statement concerning the relative acid strengths of H2SO4 and H2SO3.


▸ H2SO4 is a stronger acid than H2SO3 because the S in H2SO4 has a more positive oxidation state than the S in H2SO3 which influences the polarity of the O-H bonds.

▸ H2SO4 is a weaker acid than H2SO3 because the S in H2SO4 has a more positive oxidation state than the S in H2SO3 which influences the polarity of the O-H bonds.
