Question

Chapter 7, Question 36 Describe the bonding of sulphur dioxide, SO2. Select all the apply. O Four valence electrons occupy the delocalized it bonding orbitals. Two valence electrons occupy the delocalized Tt bonding orbitals. The Lewis structure indicates the presence of one it bond. The Lewis structure indicates the presence of two it bonds. The sulphur has SN=3, so has sp2 hybrid orbitals. Because sulphur is a third-row element, its 3d orbitals contribute to the extended it bonding orbitals.

Answer 1

Answer:-

This question is solved by using the simple concept of writing a molecular structure of any covalent compound and its bonding pattern.

The answer is given in the image,

Anuales- SO2 (5=1522522p636²3pt S = wala Sabato ai Sin 502,3 A 11 So Now, a Tulo volence electrons occupy the delocalized T bonding orbitals. • The Lewis structure indicates the presence of tuo Toones, o The selphur has SN=3, so has sp2 hybrid orbitals. • Because sulphies is third-row, element, its 3d orbitals contibutes to the extended I bonding orbitals.
