What species of sulfur disproportionates in the frost diagram

Accepted Answer

Sulfur species with multiple oxidation states can disproportionate, meaning they can be both oxidized and reduced in the same reaction. In a Frost diagram, this is represented by a line connecting two species where the slope of the line is negative. For sulfur, the species that disproportionate are sulfur dioxide (SO2) and sulfite (SO3^2-).
